Condemning the murder of a tailor in Udaipur, Ajmer Dargah Deewan Zainul Abedin Ali Khan on Tuesday said that Muslims of India will never allow Talibanisation mindset to surface in the country.

Two men with a cleaver killed a tailor in Udaipur and posted videos online that said they are avenging an insult to Islam.

“No religion promotes violence against humanity. Especially, in the religion of Islam, all the teachings act as sources of peace,” Mr. Khan said in a statement.

“In the gruesome video that surfaced on the internet, some non-ethical minds committed a brutal attack on a poor man which is received as a punishable sin in the Islamic world,” he said.

Mr. Khan said that the accused were a part of certain radical groups that find solution only via the path of violence.

“I strongly discourage this act and plead with the government to take strict action against them. Muslims of India will never allow Talibanization mindset to surface in our motherland,” he said.

Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind General Secretary Maulana Hakimuddin Qasmi also condemned the murder.
