The mother of Muzammil Shakeel, the Pulwama-based doctor arrested in connection with the Faridabad arms haul, on Tuesday refuted claims against her son and stated that the family has not been allowed to meet him. Naseema, Shakeel’s mother, told ANI that she hopes for her son’s release.
“He left home about four years ago. He was working as a doctor in Delhi. We had no information about him during this time. When he was arrested, we learned about it from others. We tried to meet him, but the police did not allow us. Even my other son has been arrested. They are saying my son is a suspect in the Delhi blast. I know nothing about this. I just want both of my sons to be released,” Naseema said.
Azad Shakeel, brother of Muzammil, argued that his brother had been working as a doctor for the last three years and expressed concern over not being allowed to meet him.
“Allegations are being put on him that some material has been recovered from him. He has been a doctor for the last 3 years in Delhi. We are not being allowed to meet him. He used to come home twice every year. He is unmarried,” Azad told ANI.
