Imam speech 'under study'

AMBALA, OCT. 13. The Centre is examining the recent pro-Taliban and pro-Osama bin Laden statements of Shahi Imam Ahmad Bukhari of the Jama Masjid, Delhi, and action would be taken at an appropriate time, the Union Minister of State for Home, Mr. I.D. Swamy, said today.

``The pro-Taliban statements of the Shahi Imam have been recorded by the Government and these are being examined,'' he told presspersons here.

Ruling out the possibility of launching an operation to destroy terrorist training camps in Pak.-occupied Kashmir, Mr. Swamy said, India ``will fight it at our own level and will not depend on others.''
