ISLAMABAD: Granting total immunity to the Mumbai terror attacks mastermind, Pakistan Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi informed a non-public news channel on Tuesday evening that no motion may also be taken towards Hafiz Saeed since no case has been registered towards him.
"Action is taken when there is a case registered against someone. There is no case against Hafiz Saeed in Pakistan, if there were a case, action would have been taken," Abbasi said in a TV interview, regarding Saeed as 'sahib', a type of cope with or identify positioned after a man's identify or designation as a mark of respect.
The Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jammatud Dawa (JuD) leader, who has a $10 million bounty on him by way of the USA state division since 2012 for his position in numerous acts of terror, was set unfastened remaining yr on November 24 after the Lahore top court directed Pakistan executive to finish his house detention.
Incidentally, in one among his early interviews, Abbasi had asked India to prosecute Saeed on a world forum if it thinks there was substance in its allegations. "Prosecute him internationally if there is substance in charges against him. These are accusations only. No evidence has been provided by India," he had said.
India, on the other hand, has claimed plenty of occasions that it had provided enough proof to Pakistan towards the LeT leader.
Islamabad came below harsh criticism following a court resolution to unencumber Saeed, underscoring the difficulties faced by way of Abbasi's executive in dealing with extremist parts in Pakistan.

"We always said that the door for talks with India is open," he said whilst blaming New Delhi for fabricating a 'propaganda' towards the multi-billion buck China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) undertaking from the very starting.
