Maharashtra minister and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Nitesh Rane has launched a strong attack on All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) after a corporator, Mateen Majid Patel, was accused of sheltering Nida Khan -- the main accused in the Nashik TCS religious conversion and sexual harassment case. Rane's statement has triggered a fresh political storm after he branded AIMIM a terrorist organisation and drew a controversial parallel between its chief Asaduddin Owaisi and Osama bin Laden.
He claimed that the work earlier carried out by Al-Qaeda under Osama bin Laden was now being replicated by Owaisi through AIMIM.
