On Tuesday the chief of Mumbai terror attack mastermind and outlawed Jamaat-ud-Dawan (JuD) Hafiz Saeed challenged the Pakistani government to arrest him if they can and he also stated that he would not stop fighting the case of Kashmiri people. "If the Pakistani government wants to arrest me...come and go for it but I will not stop dedicating 2018 for Kashmiris.” He even criticized Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif for not doing his bit on the issue of Kashmir.


He further said, "We will emerge more strongly if you try to suppress us. We may initiate efforts to make you (Sharif) prime minister again if you pledge to work for freedom of Kashmir.” He also said that the media coverage is banned in Pakistan due to the pressure of the US and India. He carries a bounty of USD 10 million in his head after he was released from house arrest in Pakistan in November.


He asked the government to allow the UN Security Council monitoring team to visit JuD and FIF centers in the country so that it could come to know about their charity work. "We welcome the international monitoring teams to our centers." He is believed to be the front organisation for the LeT who are responsible for carrying out the Mumbai attack that killed 166 people. The organisation has also been declared as a foreign terrorist organization in June 2014.
