Us Statement On Hafiz Saeed

Jamaat-ud-Dawah chief Hafiz Saeed on Friday backtracked from his earlier statement about the alleged role of India and the US in his house arrest, claiming he was detained by the Pakistan government to stop him from raising the Kashmir issue.

The United States has called for terrorist Hafiz Saeed's prosecution "to the fullest extent of the law", following Pakistan's Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi's remark that no action could be taken against the UN-designated terrorist.

The US has concerns about terror group Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed running for office in Pakistan in 2018, a senior Trump Administration official has said.

Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde today reiterated that India remains firm on its demand that Islamabad must handover 26/11 mastermind Hafeez Saeed and all other plotters of the Mumbai attacks to New Delhi. Mr Shinde was reacting to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's statement that justice for 26/11 attacks is "unfinished business."

The US has put Hafiz Saeed on its list of most-wanted terrorists and has announced a reward of $10 million.
