Last month, a video showing former Mirwaiz Qazi Yasir
performing obscene act with a girl during an online video chat, went viral. Yasir
was seen masturbating in the video while chatting with an unknown female.
Fallowing the incident, Yasir was removed as Mirvaiz South
Kashmir by Islamic Research Institute (IRI).
The decision to remove Yasir as head preacher was announced
by his maternal grandfather and patron of the seminary (institute) Alhaj Sheikh
Muhammad Abdullah in a video released on social media.
“We feel ashamed of the allegations that have come forward.
So, keeping in view the aspirations of people, we are removing him (Yasir) from
the post of Mirwaiz (south Kashmir),” Abdullah announced.
He however said “if at all these allegations are proved
right”, then his family has no association with him.
“Idara-i-Tehkeeqat will run the affairs of the Jamia Masjid
as many ulema (religious scholars) are there,” Abdullah said in the video.
Qazi Yasir, who was later booked under PSA and shifted to
Jammu jail, didn’t respond to the allegations.
However, his family claims that some people were deliberately
defaming Qazi Yasir.
