Desperate Indian government gives yet another blow to Islamic preacher Zakir Naik

NEW DELHI - Desperate Indian government gives yet another blow to Islamic preacher Zakir Naik who had fled county and took asylum in Malaysia.

Indian government is going to invoke Fugitive Economic Offenders Act (FEOA) against Islamic preacher Zakir Naik.

The ED booked him in 2016 on an FIR filed by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA). The controversial preacher is wanted by authorities for alleged money laundering and inciting extremism through hate speeches.

On Wednesday, a Special Prevention of Money Laundering (PMLA) court in Mumbai issued non-bailable warrant against Naik.
