Suri’s lawyer said this
Suri’s lawyer Hasan Ahmed has argued in a petition filed for Khan’s release that the reason for his arrest is that his wife is an American citizen of Palestinian origin. The lawyer says that the government suspects that Suri and his wife are opposed to the stance adopted towards Israel under the US foreign policy, due to which they have been targeted.
