Reacting severely, President of Minority Defense Council, Mr. Mohammed Osman Shaheed, Advocate told that however dangerous the criminal might be, he cannot be shot dead, but Telangana police misused its powers and killed the innocent Muslims. He was addressing the inaugural function of All India Muslim Front at Ruby Garden Function Hall. He told that police alleged that Viqar Ahmed snatched the gun from a policeman and opened fire. The series of incidents suggests that Viqar Ahmed and his companions were handcuffed and it was not possible for them to snatch guns from the policeman. If Viqar Ahmed had snatched the gun from the policeman, only he should have been fired at whereas four other Muslim youths were killed.
He demanded that Govt. should investigate the incident by CBI or a sitting judge of the High Court. Highlighting the aims and objectives of the formation of All India Minorities Defense Council, Mr. Shaheed said it has been formed to provide legal assistance and guidance to affected Minorities.

They should continue struggle for getting their legitimate rights.

He demanded CBI probe for Alair encounter through a sitting of the High Court.

Ismail, former judge and former member of Human Rights Commission alleged that instead of registering a criminal case against the erring police officials, Govt. constituted Special Investigating Team.
