Indian High Commissioner told Sky Yalda Hakim during a live interview on SkyNews the funeral prayer leader is Hafiz Abdul Azhar-calling him brother of sanctioned Masood Azhar. NOT TRUE. The prayer leader is Hafiz Abdul Rauf who has no relation with Masood Azhar.
Pakistani media has termed the claim as false and reported that the prayer leader Hafiz Abur Rauf is a notable local cleric and is not a brother of Masood Azhar as claimed by the Indian media and the Indian High Commissioner to the UK. Maulana Masood Azhar’s brother is Abdul Rauf Azhar.
Sky News also reported that they could not verify the image showed by the India’s High Commissioner to the UK.
