Al-Qaeda demands justice for Nupur Sharma's insulting remarks against Prophet Muhammad




Al-Qaeda has pressed Indian Muslims to bring former Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) Nupur Sharma to “justice” for her derogatory remarks about the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) in June.

Indian Intelligence agencies are worried about the safety of the former BJP spokesperson who has already been in the crosshairs of serious threats for her blasphemous comments against Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

Sharma, a spokeswoman for India’s ruling right-wing until her sacking, sparked a furor in the Islamic world when she made derogatory remarks about Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) on a TV show.

Indian magazine Nawa-e-Ghawa-e-Hind, detailed the “blasphemy” by Sharma and called for revenge in its latest issue which is also marked by an appeal to Muslims to arm themselves against the enemy.
The row has since then sparked violence in Udaipur.

The magazine published the details of the former BJP spokesperson’s blasphemy. It also demanded that she be brought to justice over her remarks.

Earlier, the Al-Qaeda in Indian Subcontinent (AQIS) had in June issued a statement threatening revenge for Sharma’s comments.

Many Muslim-majority countries have condemned India after Nupur Sharma, who belongs to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), commented on the Prophet (PBUH).
