Kerala 'love jihad': Hadiya's study at risk, feels father
Vaikom: The father of Hadiya, the woman at the centre of an alleged 'love jihad' case, on Thursday claimed that some persons were trying to "interrupt" his daughter's studies and that he would approach court to protect her. K. M. Asokan said the Supreme Court had sent her to the homoeopathy medical college in Tamil Nadu with a purpose to allow her to complete her studies and any move to interrupt it would be an offence. He expressed displeasure over Hadiya being allowed to hold a press conference at the Sivaraj Homoeopathy Medical College at Salem in Tamil Nadu on Wednesday.
"She has been sent by the Supreme Court there for completing her studies. But she is not allowed to do it. Some people are trying to interrupt her studies. She was threatened to hold a press conference. I am concerned," Hadiya's father said. Claiming that his daughter had been "brainwashed" to go to Syria, Asokan, a former Army man, said he had no issues with whatever faith his daughter wanted to follow. "I will adopt all possible measures, including the legal route, to protect my daughter. I have full faith in the judicial system".
