Talking to the media, Kashmiri leader Yasin Malik’s wife Mushaal Hussein Mullick that the RSS-inspired Hindutva ideology was being pursued by the BJP-led Modi government, which was a key threat to ‘foreign investment’ in India.

Amid New Delhi’s move to seek a death sentence for Yasin Malik, Mushaal Mullick said that the entire world would react if any harm came to Yasin Malik. She added the Indian government was trying to commit a ‘judicial murder’ of Yasin Malik and warned that such a move would trigger a reaction from across the globe.
