Lahore, November 19

Mumbai terror attack mastermind and Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) chief Hafiz Saeed was on Thursday sentenced to 10 years in jail by an anti-terrorism court in Pakistan in two more terror financing cases.

Saeed, a UN designated terrorist on whom the US put a $10 million bounty, was arrested on July 17 last year in terror financing cases. He was sentenced to 11 years in jail by an anti-terrorism court in February this year in two terror financing cases.

The 70-year-old JuD chief is lodged at Lahore’s Kot Lakhpat jail. “The Anti-Terrorism Court sentenced four JuD leaders in two more cases,” said a court official. — PTI
