The accused was booked under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act on Sunday, paving the way for the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to take over the case.
India said on Thursday it has raised with Qatar the issue of fugitive Islamic preacher Zakir Naik following reports that he was in the West Asian country for the FIFA World Cup.
The Modi government had clearly told Doha that New Delhi would be forced to call off the visit of Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar to attend the FIFA World Cup opening ceremony if the reports of Naik being formally invited for the event was true.
India made it very clear to Qatar that the visit of Vice President Jagdeep Dhankar for World Cup inauguration on November 20 would be called off if Doha had extended an invitation to Islamic fundamentalist Naik to attend the opening ceremony.
