Hafiz Saeed's JuD carrying out terror activities by joining hands with fringe groups

Islamabad [Pakistan], Aug 12 (ANI): After Pakistan levied ban on terrorist organisation Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD), the proscribed outfit has joined hands with other groups to carry out terror activities on their behalf.
Intelligence inputs suggested that JuD, a front group of the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), is using the fringe groups for terror financing and money laundering.
JuD chief, Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, was recently arrested by the counter-terrorism police in Gujranwala, Punjab, under charges of terror financing.
Saeed is accused by India of masterminding the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks that killed more than 160 people.
His recent arrest came in the wake of strict guidelines of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), a Paris-based anti-terror financing watchdog.
Pakistan is on the gray list of the FATF for the second time. It was first put on the grey list in 2012 and remained there for three years.
The FATF put it back on the grey list in June 2018 asking Islamabad to implement strict actions against terror financing and money laundering cases operating from its soil.
The JuD has been misleading the United States and global anti-terror watchdogs by using Jihadi `tanzeems' (organisations) who are not on the banned list to carry out its terror-related operations. (ANI)
