Al-Qaeda has requested that Nupur Sharma, a former member of the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP), be “judged” for her insulting comments made about the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) in June.
Sharma, a spokesperson for the right-wing government in India until she was fired, offended many Muslims when she insulted the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) on television.
Muslims worldwide demanded that she be punished after the statements provoked major protests in India and other countries. Since then, the argument has generated bloodshed in Udaipur.
