MUMBAI: Admonishing a lawyer for attempting to link the Mumbai terror attacks last year with the revelations in the Holy Qur’an, Justice Dhananjay Chandrachud, one of the judges of a three-member full bench of the Bombay High Court made a historical remark that a Muslim could be a terrorist, but it’s wrong to conclude that all Muslims are terrorists.

Justice Chandrachud made this remarks while hearing a petition on Saturday filed by lawyer RV Bhasin against the Maharashtra government’s order imposing a ban on his book ‘Islam — A concept of Political World Invasion by Muslims.’ Bhasin has challenged the government ban order. All the three judges were admonished the petitioner who tied to link the Mumbai terrorist attacks to the teachings in the Holy Qur’an.
