Guwahati, Dec 5 (TIWN) A right-wing leader close to the ruling BJP in Assam has lodged a complaint with the police against Ajmal Foundation, an organisation run by AIUDF Lok Sabha MP Maulana Badruddin Ajmal for receiving funds from foreign agencies allegedly linked to terrorist organisations, the police said on Saturday.

Strongly rejecting the accusation, All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) President Ajmal said that such complaints are politically motivated and are meant to malign his party, which has an alliance with the Congress in Assam.  According to the police, the Ajmal Foundation has been charged with sections of the Indian Penal Code and Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act, which prohibit acceptance and utilisation of foreign contributions for any activities "detrimental to national interest".
