Articles: News | Sania under fire over `Sex’ remarks
- Mr. Ravi Kumar Sunkara

Hyderabad: Tennis star Sania Mirza's remarks on safe sex, 'before or after marriage', have evoked sharp reactions in her hometown with some calling them 'un-Islamic' and others demanding an apology.
A day after Sania backed Tamil film star Khushboo - who has been dragged to court for comments on pre-marital sex - activists of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) took to the streets at various places and set afire her posters.
A Muslim cleric, who had earlier termed Sania's on-court dress code as 'un-Islamic', also said if she had supported pre-marital sex she would have nothing to do with Islam.
'Fornication is a major sin in Islam. A Muslim man or woman can't even mingle freely before marriage, not to talk about having sex. If a Muslim promotes fornication, he or she is considered expelled from Islam,' said Moulana Haseebul Hasan Siddiqui, general secretary, Sunni Ulema Board, an organisation of clerics.
He said protests from various organisations against Sania's remarks were a natural reaction.
