Chief of Jamaat-e-Islami group announces Rs 1 billion for anyone who ‘arrests’ Narendra Modi

In a shocking statement, the chief of the hardline Jamaat-e-Islami party Siraj-ul-Haq on Monday announced an award of Rs 1 billion for anyone who ‘arrests’ Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

According to a report published in the Express News, Siraj-ul-Haq said India has been unsuccessful in arresting ‘jihadi’ leaders like Hizbul Mujahideen chief Syed Salahuddin even after offering a reward for them.

“I want to say to Modi that you and your agents cannot arrest Salahuddin… And you say whoever will arrest Salahuddin, we will give him Rs 50 crore. I too say that whoever arrests Modi, we will give him Rs 1 arab (Rs 1 billion),” he said.

Speaking at a public gathering in Rawalakot in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, Haq also contended that Kashmir is a part of Pakistan and that no efforts should be made to mend ties with India.

“As long as the issue of Kashmir is not settled, whoever talks of friendship with Hindustan, he is a traitor to Pakistan and the Kashmiris. If you want the friendship of Hindustan, then go to Hindustan, to Delhi and to Mumbai, there is no place for you in Islamabad.”

Haq also blamed Modi for killing civilians in Jammu and Kashmir and Gujarat.
