The spiritual head of Ajmer Dargah, Syed Zainul Abedin Ali Khan, condemned Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan's statement of calling slain terrorist Osama bin Laden a "martyr".

In the Pakistan parliament, PM Imran Khan addressed the terrorist as a "martyr", which reflects that terrorism is part of Pakistan's ''state policy'', Abedin said in a statement on Saturday.
