Srinagar, ): Few days back Kashmir heard a shocking news that
believed as LeT outfit suspect Bilal Ahmed Kawa from Downtown Srinagar was
arrested in a joint operation by Special Cell of Delhi Police and Gujarat
ATS from Delhi Airport for alleged involvement in terror attack on Red
Fort in 2000, however, his family, friends and all who know him stated
Kawa is totally innocent and are terming his arrested on “frivolous”
charge.
Kawa’s family while talking to media has made it clear  that he has been
arrested on “frivolous” charges and agencies are trying to implicate him
in a case in which he has no hand at all. “He was only a teenager in 2000,
when this incident had happened in which he has been implicated. What is
making them arrest my son after 17 years of this incident,” said Kawa’s
mother Fatima.”
Advocate Uzair Ronga , while talking to Kashmir News Bureau  stated-“Bilal
Ahmad Kawa is in no way involved in any terror activities.He has travelled
Delhi scores of times and was never  absconding .He was busy with the
normal chorus of life running his leather business. In 2000 his brother in
law was falsely implicated and then acquitted after 12 long years. Both of
them are innocents and nothing was found against Bilal Ahmad Kawa at that
time too when a team from Delhi arrived to investigate the matter.”
“This cock and bull story has no base neither even an iota of truth in it
.He was a regular traveller to Delhi. We have seen similar  incidents in
past and the same is being repeated in Bilal’s matter, that how innocent
kashmiris are being harassed and used as scape goats  on the eve of Indian
republic day,” Uzair added.
Pertinently, On 22 December, 2000, three people, including two army
jawans, were killed in the Red Fort attack when militants started
indiscriminate firing near the monument.
