The family of controversial cleric Mufti Abdul Qavi has disassociated themselves from him and has stripped him of the ‘mufti’ title, claiming that he is suffering from a mental illness.
According to Qavi’s family, he is being hospitalized in a mental institution because his thoughts are not in control. In a press conference, Qavi’s uncle Wahid Nadeem announced that the cleric has been isolated in his house.
“Abdul Qavi has been used by different people over the years for media attention,” the uncle said, referring to the recent controversies that the cleric had embroiled himself in. Nadeem said that Qavi shouldn’t be addressed as a ‘mufti’ because he brought shame to the family. “We have seized his mobile phones and now he is under treatment for mental illness he is suffering from,” he added.
