Zakaria asked us to come on Friday (i.e December 21) post ‘jummah’ (Friday prayer). Luckily in the middle of the conversation, we heard Zakaria talking to someone over the phone about meeting with an Arab. Our suspicion turned true when we saw one Arab entering his office while we were leaving his office. A short while later, he was followed by a group of burqa-clad women.u00a0
