Notice to Telugu channel for calling ex-cop ISIS terrorist
Hyderabad, July 22: The State Minorities Commission has issued a notice to a popular Telugu news channel for reportedly branding a former police constable as ISIS terrorist.
The commission has received a large number of complaints for branding the ex-cop Abdul Quadeer as ISIS terrorist.
The commission chairman Abid Rasool Khan said that Editorial director of the channel was given a week's time to file a reply. He said that branding the victim as terrorist angered the community.
The channel was told to submit a certified copy of scrolled news.
It may be noted that Abdul Quadeer killed ACP Sathaiah during 1992 riots and he was released on one month parole recently.
