Dr Zakir Naik found himself in the eye of the storm after reports surfaced that at least two of the Dhaka attackers were "inspired by his preaching about Islam."
Rohan Imtiaz, one of the suspected attackers of the terror attack carried out in Holey Artisan Bakery cafe, is said to have posted a message on Facebook quoting Naik prior to the attack.
In this light, Minister of State Kiren Rijiju said, "We have to have evidence to produce before court for arresting him." NIA added, "There may be many who follow such a preacher, but that cannot make a case against such a person."

Here's all you need to know about him:

Who is Dr Zakir Naik?
Dr Zakir Naik is a Mumbai-based Islamic preacher and televangelist, and the founder of the Islamic Research Foundation. He also heads a "comparative religion" channel called Peace TV.
A trained medical doctor, the 50-year-old Islamic cleric has made it to the headlines plenty of times earlier with several controversies regarding his teachings.
With his speeches and teachings, Naik has garnered over 14 million followers on Facebook and around 200 million viewers of Peace TV, which runs in Urdu, Bengali, Chinese and other languages.
Naik is a self-proclaimed follower of the late South African preacher Ahmed Deedat. Walking in Deedat's footsteps, Naik gave his speeches in English and used technology to reach out to his followers.
