Published:

The Ramadhan
Foundation totally condemns the terrorist attacks tonight in Mumbai, India. These evil and despicable attacks
have one aim and that is to kill innocent people. We express our concern for Sajjad
Karrim MEP and many other innocent people that are caught up tonight,
they are in our thoughts.
Mr. Mohammed
Shafiq, Chief Executive of the Foundation comments:
“The Ramadhan
Foundation is shocked and saddened at tonight’s terrorist attacks in
Mumbai, I condemn them without any reservation and our thoughts tonight
are with the victims and their families. All faiths reject this evil menace of
terrorism and we should work together to build tolerance and respect
and resolve conflicts through dialogue and discussion.
I am also
concerned at the captivity of Sajjad Karrim MEP in the Taj Hotel; we
hope and pray for the safe release of Sajjad and all those others captured
tonight.
There can be no
justification for this evil and I hope these strong words will send out
the message that people of faith are disgusted by this evil.”
END
