Jamaat-ud-Dawah leader Hafiz Saeed could face fresh imprisonment after UK diplomats met top Pakistani officials in the last of week of July. The attempt was to persuade Pakistan to take action against the outfit, a front for the outlawed Lashkar-i-Taiba (LeT), a Pakistani newspaper reported on Tuesday.
The report said the move was a result of India’s “covert diplomatic campaign” to push Pakistan to crackdown on Jamaat-ud-Dawah, believed to have been behind the 2008 Mumbai massacre.
