ATC indicts JuD chief Hafiz Saeed in terror financing case
|
[DAWN] An anti-terrorism court in Lahore on Wednesday indicted Hafiz Saeed
 ...founder of Lashkar-e-Taiba and its false-mustache offshoot Jamaat-ud-Dawa. The United Nations declared the JuD a terrorist organization in 2008 and Hafiz Saeed a terrorist as its leader. Hafiz, JuD and LeT are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Pak intel apparatus, so that amounted to squat. He is periodically placed under house arrest so it looks like the govt is doing something. Once the heat is off they let him go....
, the chief of the proscribed Jamaat-ud-Dawa
...the front organization of Lashkar-e-Taiba...
(JuD), and four other JuD leaders who were booked in July for offences pertaining to terror financing.

Saeed, along with the others, was presented before the court today under strict security protocol.
During the proceedings, Saeed's lawyer presented arguments against the indictment.
After filing charges, the court summoned the prosecution's witnesses. ATC-I judge Malik Arshad Bhutta, who heard the case, adjourned proceedings until tomorrow.
On Saturday, the court had delayed the indictment owing to unavailability of one of the suspects in a case registered by the Counterterrorism Department (CTD) on charges of terror financing.
The JuD leaders deny allegations against them as being baseless and a result of international pressure on the Pakistain government. They claim that they have been charged in cases by wrongly attributing them as leaders of the banned Lashkar-e-Taiba
...the Army of the Pure, an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is banned , always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI...
(LeT).
They plead it was an admitted fact supported by superior courts’ decisions that they had already quit the LeT before the organization was proscribed in 2002. They argue the cases against them have been made on the basis of a link to defunct al-Nifal Trust which, they claim, was formed to construct mosques in the country. They say the CTD registered cases without any substantive evidence.
Financing terror
On July 3, the top 13 leaders of the JuD were booked in nearly two dozen cases pertaining to terror financing and money laundering under the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA), 1997.
The CTD, which registered the cases in five cities of Punjab, declared that the JuD was financing terrorism from the massive funds collected through non-profit organizations and trusts including al-Anfaal Trust, Dawatul Irshad Trust, Muaz Bin Jabal Trust, etc.
These non-profit organizations were banned in April as the CTD, during detailed investigations, found that they had links with the JuD and its top leadership.
Subsequently, on July 17, Saeed was arrested from Gujranwala on charges of terror financing by the Punjab
1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots....
CTD. He was sent to prison on judicial remand after the CTD presented him before a Gujranwala ATC.
