Rep. Nadler Stands in Solidarity with the Indian People after Attacks in Mumbai

NEW YORK, NY – In response to last week’s terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India, Congressman Jerrold Nadler (NY-08) issued the following statement:

“I am shocked and saddened by the horrendous and cowardly attacks committed against innocent people in Mumbai.  I stand in solidarity with the Indian people and government and offer my deepest sympathy to those who lost loved ones.  This heinous act of terror simultaneously targeted Hindus, Muslims, Christians and Jews.  The whole world mourns their loss, and we must all do more to prevent terrorists from organizing, training and obtaining the resources necessary to commit such unspeakable atrocities.

“My profound condolensces go out to the Indian and South Asian communities of New York, to the Holzberg family of Crown Heights, and to my own constituent in Borough Park, the esteemed Velover Rav, Rabbi Nuchem Efraim Teitelbaum, and his family, who lost their son, Rabbi Aryeh Leibush Teitelbaum, the father of nine children.”
