MHA designates 23 Pakistan-based individuals linked to JeM, LeT as terrorists under UAPA

The Union home ministry has designated 23 individuals based in Pakistan, associated with Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and other outfits, as “terrorists” under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) for their involvement in various activities, including infiltration, recruitment, the supply of arms and planning attacks in Jammu and Kashmir. Among those designated are close aides of LeT founder Hafiz Saeed, who is behind multiple attacks on Indian soil Among those designated are close aides of LeT founder Hafiz Saeed, who is behind multiple attacks on Indian soil. The Central government amended the UAPA in August 2019 to include a provision for designating an individual as a terrorist. Prior to this amendment, only organisations could be designated as terrorist organisations. Designating individuals as terrorists allows agencies such as the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to impose an embargo on arms and funds and seize the assets of such persons. The current list of designated terrorists includes top names such as Hafiz Saeed, JeM chief Maulana Masood Azhar, 26/11 Mumbai attacks co-mastermind Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, fugitive underworld don Dawood …

US senators question Pakistan’s role in Iran talks after Vance’s praise: ‘History of harbouring terrorists’

After the United States Vice President JD Vance’s public praise for the country, Republican Senators raised questions regarding Pakistan’s role in negotiations to end the West Asia conflict. Two US lawmakers have called into question Islamabad and Qatar’s place at the negotiating table. (AFP) In the midst of the US-Iran conflict, both Pakistan and Qatar had emerged as the primary mediators in negotiations. The deal to end the war was signed last week, following which Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif thanked both sides “for their commitment to finding a diplomatic solution.” However, two US lawmakers have now called into question Islamabad’s and Qatar’s place at the negotiating table, as talks on the technical details of the final deal are underway.

Inside story of how India hunted terrorists & what security forces need to work on| India News

Hindustan Times Executive Editor Shishir Gupta and Senior Anchor Aayesha Varma discuss the Pahalgam terror attack and its wider geopolitical fallout. During the conversation, they look back at the massacre, interrogate Pakistan’s terror ecosystem, and ask what India must do to prevent another such tragedy. One year ago, 26 Hindu tourists were singled out and gunned down by Lashkar‑e‑Taiba terrorists in Pahalgam. A massacre that scarred Pahalgam One year ago, 26 Hindu tourists were singled out and gunned down by Lashkar‑e‑Taiba terrorists in the Baisaran valley near Pahalgam, in one of the most brutal communal massacres in recent years. The attackers identified Hindu men and shot them in front of their families, turning a holiday into a scene of horror. Gupta describes the “cost of terrorism” as humongous: lives lost, families destroyed, and a country forced to confront the failure of its security architecture in the face of a “rogue state” on India’s western border. In hindsight, he argues, every link in the security chain—from intelligence to local police response—was found wanting. Three Lashkar operatives, …
