Abid Hossain
Abid Hossain is a 51-year-old religious teacher who has dedicated over three decades to educating children at a compound in Muridke, Pakistan. He has vehemently denied allegations that the compound serves as a terrorist training camp, asserting that it has always been an educational center for both boys and girls. Hossain challenges claims of the facility being associated with terrorism by questioning how activities like swimming, horseback riding, and physical training could be interpreted as terrorist training. His statements come amid heightened scrutiny of the compound, which was taken under the control of the Pakistani government in 2019 due to international pressure regarding connections to militant groups.
