Coordination Committee of Indian Muslims, which consists of leading Muslim organisations like All India Muslim Majlis-e Mushawarat, Jamiat Ulama-e Hind, Jamaat-e-Islami Hind, Jamiat Ahl-e Hadees, All India Milli Council, etc, condemned the recent beastly terror attacks in Mumbai. While paying tribute to those killed in the attacks, the committee demanded a high-level transparent, unbiased and truthful enquiry into these attacks so that the real culprits might be brought to book soon and punished severely.
The committee called upon the Muslims of the country to come forward to help the victims of the incident. The leaders of the committee also requested Imams of mosques across the country to condemn the terror attacks in their Friday and Eid sermons. It also called on Muslim masses to celebrate Eid with simplicity this year and to wear black strips on Eid day.
In a statement, the committee expressed its concern that the terror attacks have led the country to a situation of fear and insecurity. The motive of the terrorists is to destabilise India, hurt its economy and damage national unity. The committee demands the Governments at the Centre and in the states to pay attention to further tightening the law and order system in order to ensure security of the countrymen.
The committee also asked the authorities, civil society groups and the media to work together to expose the real perpetrators of these unprecedented attacks. Leaving the real culprits behind the curtains of suspicion will only help terrorists to fortify their activities and will increase the feeling of insecurity among the people.
