Independent investigation into Iran is needed to eliminate terrorism globally: Shia cleric Maulana Hasan Ali Rajani

Delhi, October 7 (Press Release): Shia cleric and leader Maulana Hasan Ali Rajani has stated that an impartial and comprehensive investigation must be conducted into all possible financial, communication, and organizational links—including any Iranian connection—regarding the Flydubai flight incident. He emphasized the need for independent inquiries into the humanitarian tragedies unfolding in Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Lebanon, Palestine, and other regions, while keeping Muslims worldwide insulated from political and military conflicts. Rajani added that there should also be a transparent investigation into Iran's regional policies and its alleged ties to various armed groups so that the facts may be clarified. No country or organization can be held responsible for an attack based merely on political slogans. Verifiable evidence is essential for this. Highlighting the prompt actions taken by the Indian captain of the Flydubai flight—Sumit Machhar—as well as the passengers and crew, he noted that these measures helped avert a potential major tragedy. Maulana Rajani stated that if investigations establish a tangible link involving any Iranian entity, affiliated group, or other network, action must be taken against the responsible parties in accordance with international law. He emphasized that investigations aimed at eradicating terrorism must be transparent, free from political interests, and grounded in verifiable evidence, with any definitive accusations determined only after a thorough investigation. In conclusion, the Maulana stated...

...that Iran has long funded militant groups across the globe, resulting in the devastation of numerous countries; therefore, I emphatically state that eradicating terrorism from the world is impossible without reining in Iran.
