When Home Minister Shinde paid respects to Hafiz Saheed

Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed may be the key conspirator of the Mumbai terror attacks, but

Sushilkumar Shinde who was Home Minister in the UPA regime had given him full respect. While referring to Saeed, Home Minister used honorifics like 'Mr' and 'Shri' in 2012.

Shinde, during the course of a statement on the visit of Pakistan's interior minister Rehman Malik, addressed Saeed as 'Mr' and 'Shri' twice each.

"Mr Rehman Malik, interior minister of Pakistan has been telling us repeatedly that he had arrested Mr Hafiz Saeed thrice and that on each occasion, he was let off by the courts for lack of evidence," Shinde said in an identical statement in both Houses of Parliament.
