New Delhi: The son of Afzal Guru has appealed to the government to issue him a passport so that he can take up a medical scholarship abroad.

Afzal Guru, convited in the 2001 Parliament attack, was hanged by the UPA II government in 2013.

In an interview to Times of India, Ghalib credits his mother for “isolating” him from the pressure of homegrown terror outfits and those from Pakistan to join their ranks.

“We learn from the mistakes of the past. My father could not pursue his medical career (at Sher-e-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences). I want to complete it,” said Ghalib.
