Cooperating with police: Lawyer
But his lawyer Fuzail Ahmed Ayyubi said that they were cooperating with the police and the investigative agencies have not asked the Maulana to join investigations.
Maulana Saad, in his interview with IANS, had said: “I am not sure whether this can be called a conspiracy. There has been more than one instance in the past where a person has been put to trial and proclaimed guilty by the media, only to be exonerated later by the courts after appreciating the correct and relevant facts.”

The Markaz chief said that they believed in the judicial system of the country and the truth shall prevail.
Maulana Saad has asked his followers, who tested positive for coronavirus and have recovered, to donate their plasma for the treatment of other Covid-19 patients.
