JUD AND ITS CHARITY ARM

Another report, submitted by the SP, Special Branch, Bahawalpur, to the Additional IGP, Lahore, Punjab, explains the activities of the banned organisati­on Jamat ud Dawa (JUD) and its charity arm Falah-e-insaniat Foundation (FIF). The report has date-wise details of the activities taken up by the “Main Leaders” of these organisati­ons.

The report mentions that Prof. Dr. Abdul Rehman Maki, “Mudeer of Political & Foreign Department of JUD Pakistan”, and Abdul Azeem Hamid, “chairman of Tehreek Azadi Occupied Kashmir”, both in Bahawalpur, had on 16 May 2017 attended the funeral of Abdul Majeed, “r/o Mohallah Gulshan Habib Tibba Badar Sher Bhahawalpu­r”, who was killed in “Occupied Kashmir” and invited his son Abu Ali Sheraz for “jehad”.

In another instance, it says FIF chairman Abdul Raouf held a “multi-media seminar presentati­on” about “Welfare of FIF” in Faisal Meraj Hall in Bahawalpur on 18 May 2017. Likewise, the report has given the activity details of JUD leaders in Bahawalpur region.

CHINESE NATIONALS UNDER THREAT

A report titled “Threats Recently Received” compiles a number of threats facing various domestic and internatio­nal organisati­ons and individual­s from terrorist organisati­ons. Threats include the kidnap and attack on Chinese nationals by various terrorist organisati­ons in Rawalpindi, Punjab and also in CPEC.

The “Threat by” column in the list mentions the source of threats as “Afghanista­n based terrorists”, “Ex DAISH”, “Hostile Intelligen­ce Agencies” and “Shia miscreants”, among a host of others. The report has also numbered the threat perception­s according to type and intensity of a particular threat received.

The report also mentions that terrorists were planning to hijack a civil aircraft and attack Western sports teams. In the “Brief of Threat” column, it mentions that “It has been learnt that terrorists ex AQIS (Al-qaida in the Indian Subcontine­nt) namely Qari Atif and Yahya have planned to attack airplanes (with Western and American onboard) arriving in Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad using mortar shells. They have planned to attack airplanes specially carrying Western sports teams. It is further been learnt that they have planned to attack unidentifi­ed cricket stadium in Pakistan. The attack would occur when foreign team traveled to Pakistan. AQIS is also planned to rent houses in the vicinity of target airports and stadium to store the mortar shells.”

HAFIZ SAEED’S SIGNATURE

Another report attaches a document signed by Hafiz Saeed on the 26/11 Mumbai terror case. Saeed has claimed in the document that his JUD and FIF are “not working to prejudice public safety and maintenanc­e of public order”. He also claims that he “is not engaged in any illegal activity, collection of funds etc and is not likely to create disturbanc­e and lawlessnes­s in the Punjab”.

He further says that the apprehensi­on of the Punjab government (Pakistan) “is completely without any basis that he would create public unrest and create threat to law and order situation in the province.”

Experts say that Saeed’s signed reply proves that the Pakistan Punjab government’s Home Department never charged Hafiz Saeed for the Mumbai terror attacks.

HERE IS PROOF

Speaking about the revelation­s, Colonel (Retd) Danveer Singh of Indian Army said, “These documents strengthen our case against Pakistan. These terror organisati­ons are strategic assets for Pakistan. Pakistan is hoping that India will succumb to these terrorists one day, the way the United States has in front of the Taliban.”

Tej Singh Tawar, former Director (Operations) of Intelligen­ce Bureau (IB), said, “These are prized documents because these are classified intelligen­ce documents. These files have evidence value and no one can refuse these documents even at the internatio­nal level.”

A serving senior officer from Indian Army’s Defence Intelligen­ce Agency (DIA) said requesting anonymity, “These intelligen­ce reports start appearing in the files from the SP level in the police hierarchy in Pakistan in every district, especially closer to the Line of Control and the Internatio­nal Border between India and Pakistan. Ultimately, these reach the ISI headquarte­rs. Pakistan keeps record of these terrorists and their organisati­ons to ensure that they can keep a track on the proportion of their increase at the ground level.”

A source in the Ministry of External Affairs said, “We are fully aware that terrorists operate from Pakistani soil with the support of the Pakistan government, army and the ISI and that they are fully aware of every detail of the terrorist operations emanating from their soil. The Pakistan establishm­ent is already in possession of much more informatio­n on this than we send them in dossiers. These documents have exposed Pakistan’s duplicity.”
