Non-Bailable Warrant Against Hafiz Saeed For Aiding Terrorists In Kashmir
According to the NIA, its investigation has revealed that Saeed, who is based in Pakistan, is allegedly providing financial assistance, weapons and directions to terrorists operating in Kashmir.
A special National Investigation Agency (NIA) Court in Jammu has granted a non-bailable arrest warrant to Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) founder Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, according to a recent court order. The warrant was issued due to the accused's continued absence and the inability of investigators to locate him. The warrant was forwarded to the DIG (Deputy Inspector General), NIA Jammu for execution in accordance with the prescribed legal procedures.
The warrant was sought under Sector 75 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), which allows for the arrest of an individual who is designated a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). The NIA claims that Saeed, who operates from Pakistan, was providing weapons, money, and directions to terrorists operating in the Kashmir valley.
The agency filed an application for the warrant based on information gathered that Saeed is presently in Pakistan and evading arrest. The warrant was filed in response to a case registered this year involving a person who was arrested at a checkpost in Ganderbal. During the search, Chinese grenades and ammunition were recovered, and the individual identified himself as Mohammad Naqeeb Bhat, a resident of Srinagar.
Further investigation revealed that the arrested individuals were linked to LeT/The Resistance Front (TRF).
