Pakistan’s Punjab province government has enhanced the security of Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief and Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed following a home department alert that a “foreign intelligence agency” may make an attempt on JuD chief’s life.

“We have enhanced the security of Hafiz Saeed in accordance with the directive of the home department,” an official of the Punjab government told PTI on Tuesday.

He said more policemen have been deployed at his residence in Jauhar Town and JuD headquarters Chauburji, Lahore, in the wake of the threat.

Senior superintendent police Athar Ismail said the police had “sensitised” the people who are engaged in the personal security of Saeed.

According to the letter issued by the Punjab home department, a “foreign intelligence agency” has made plans to attack ‘high-value targets’ like Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and JuD chief Saeed to create chaos on a wide-scale.

The United States has already put $10 million bounty on the head of Saeed.

The United Nations declared Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) a terrorist organisation and also individually designated Saeed as a terrorist in December 2008.

Saeed, who orchestrated the November, 2008, Mumbai terror attack in which 166 people were killed, roams around freely in Pakistan despite being a designated terrorist and has made many anti-India remarks and speeches.

Pakistan has said that there is no case against Saeed and that he is free to move in the country as a Pakistani national.

Ends up being a big propaganda win for India - a check India has been cashing for close to 7 years.

From being the head of Difa E Pakistan to Difa E Self? Transformation is complete.

Nailed it. Whilst certain Pakistanis like to delude themselves that this animal is their "asset", he is nothing but a liability and his presence and status as a "free man"- strike that, protected by the state, is hurting Pakistan immeasurably.

TBH i can't even blame Pakistan, if they give him up then the public will crucify their leaders for giving in to Indian pressure., in addition it would be a tacit confession that they were in the wrong all this time. Kind of heads India wins and tails Pakistan looses situation.

Pakistan in short is stuck - only option is to hide him a deep hole and hope every one forgets about him. Which is precisely what they have been trying to do with embarrassments such as Saeed, Dawood, Lakhvi etc and India trying to prevent by bringing each and every issue to limelight through it's media.

Interesting game!

What an utter crappy reporting as the mastermind of mumbai attack. these sold out yellow journalists do not have any respect for ethics, facts, morality and humanity. Why are they distorting the fact that it has been established now that was an internal job aka false flag attack. This guy is a peaceful religious leader and was a professor at a university.

What delusions? Do you think there are no downsides to actively protecting an internationally recognised terrorist? As I have said, the cost is immeasurable because perception is an intangible so who knows what kind of negative affect this policy of yours is having on Pakistan? The OBL saga did enough damage to Pakistan on the global stage, this is only going to further work against you by further validating all negative narratives against Pakistan.

Leave aside India, Why US have declared him International terrorist, and place bounty over his head.
