Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, a Pakistani cleric on New Delhiâs most wanted list of alleged terrorists said on Tuesday that he wanted to send aid workers to Held Kashmir when the border opens for the quake relief efforts.
What's the Urdu word for "shameless"? | Hafiz Mohammad Saeed founded the banned Islamic militant group Lashkar e Taiba, which is fighting Indian rule in Kashmir and was blamed by New Delhi for an attack on Indiaâs Parliament in December 2001. Saeed conveniently left the group shortly before it was outlawed by President Pervez Musharraf in 2002 and set up the charity organisation named Jamaatud Dawa. âWe want our workers to go to Held Kashmir to provide relief. It will include tents, blankets, medicines, winter clothes and a team of doctors,â Saeed said.
"We'll provide the destitute with arms, ammunition, and explosives..." | Officials said it was unlikely that Jamaatud Dawa workers will be allowed to cross, especially as New Delhi continues to allege the infiltration of militants from Pakistan into Held Kashmir. An Indian police chief said that a group, which claimed responsibility for three bomb blasts in the Indian capital on Saturday had links to Lashkar e Taiba. Saeed said that Jamaatud Dawa had disassociated itself from Lashkar but he still supported calls for âjihadâ in Kashmir. Jamaat ud Dawa was one of first groups to start relief efforts in Azad Kashmir (AJK) and lost over 70 of its activists in the earthquake. |
