Zakir Naik, a 53-year-old television preacher, migrated to Malaysia in 2016. He was charged for creating unlawful activities in India. Malaysian PM Mahathir Mohamad has rejected India's claim that PM Modi asked Malaysia for Zakir Naik's return. However, Foreign Secretary Vijay Gokhale said he raised the issue of Zakir Naik's extradition from Malaysia during his meeting with Mahathir. Presently, no country wants Naik.
