All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen president Asaduddin Owaisi said that he was against all encounters as they weaken the rule of law.
Mr Owaisi was addressing the media at the party headquarters in Darussalaam where he was taking questions on the Supreme Court hearings on the Gyanvaapi Masjid case and the encounter of accused in the Disha rape and murder case.
“I am against all encounters. Whether it be the encounter of Aziz and Azam during Chandra Babu Naidu’s government, or Sohrabuddin’s encounter, or Nayeem’s encounter, or the Shamshabad encounter because encounters weaken the rule of law. Government should be run by rule of law, not rule of the gun,” he said.
