Srinagar, May 16 (KNS): Former Union Minister Prof Saif Ud Din Soz on Sunday said that the detention of two sons of late Mohammad Ashraf Sehrai’s shows “government’s animosity” which he won’t appreciate.
In a statement issued to Kashmir News Service (KNS), on Sunday Soz said “It is unfortunate that Former Jamaat-e-Islami leader Late Ashraf Sehrai’s two sons have been arrested by the police in connection with their involvement in pro-freedom and provocative slogans that had been raised in the funeral procession of Late Sehrai on 6th May at Tekkipora Sogam, Kupwara”, adding that “some people are adamant to see Ashraf Sehrai’s sons punished for the ideas of their father”.
Stating that ” this is an obnoxious trait in the character of those who want to fight Ashraf Sehrai’s family after his demise”, Soz in his statement said “I reject this attitude with contempt”, adding that “the civilized world recently got an enjoyable advice from, now famous Holocaust Survivor Eddie Jaku, who rejected hate as a trait of human character”.
He also said “Eddie Jaku has rightly advised the world that, ‘Hate is a disease which not only destroys your enemy but you also.’(KNS)
