The family of Muzammil Ganaie, a Kashmiri doctor who was arrested after 360 kilograms of explosives were recovered from his rented room in Faridabad, claimed he was not involved in terror activities.

Azad Shakil, brother of Muzammil, said they were unaware of the police action and asserted that his brother was a “good person”.

"It is being alleged that he is a big terrorist. We have no knowledge of it. For the past five decades, there has been no case against anyone from our family," Shakil told PTI news agency.

He further claimed that their family had been targeted earlier by stone-pelters for being “nationalists”.

"We are completely Indians and we have taken stones for India. You can verify it from anyone in the village," he said.
