He is innocent, says brother
SRINAGAR, DEC. 16. Prof. Abdul Rehman Geelani, who has confessed to his links with militants who attacked Parliament last week, is ``falsely implicated'' in the case and whereabouts of four members of his family are not known, according to the academic's brother.
Immediately after Delhi Police Commissioner, Mr. Ajai Raj Sharma's press conference in New Delhi giving details of the breakthrough in the case, Abdul Rahim Geelani, the academic's brother, told reporters at his Tawheedgunj residence in Baramulla that his brother was ``innocent'' and falsely implicated by police.
``We have no news about Geelani's wife, two children and a brother who were staying with him in New Delhi,'' Rahim said.
He said efforts to contact them did not succeed and ``there is no news about their welfare. We are worried about their fate.'' - PTI
