Zakir Naik delays return to Mumbai
Mumbai, July 11 (IBNS): Islamic preacher Zakir Naik, who is under fire after the recent Dhaka attack, delayed his return to his hometown Mumbai in a possible move to dodge investigations.
Naik is presently in Saudi Arabia.
In a setback for him, Bangladesh on Sunday banned his channel Peace TV after the MIB took it down two days ago.
Though his involvement in the attack has not been established yet, his speeches are believed to have incited at least two attackers.
