{Adaab, or welcome!] [what's new]


In truth everything and everyone
Is a shadow of the Beloved,
And our seeking is His seeking
And our words are His words...
We search for Him here and there,
while looking right at Him.
Sitting by His side, we ask:
'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'

Militant Outfit JuD May Resurface With New Name

Date: 24 January 2015
While the banning of Hafiz Muhammad Saeed's Jamaat-ud Dawa (JuD) is being viewed as a paradigm shift in Pakistan's policy, security officials in Kashmir are keeping their fingers crossed over the development. The Lashkar-e-Toiba, considered as the sister organisation of the JuD, has been operating in J&K for over a decade and was blamed for masterminding the 2008 Mumbai attack. Hafiz Saeed, India's most-wanted militant, has been publicly distancing himself from Lashkar activities. 'The JuD may be banned, but it can always resurface with a new name,' said a senior police officer.
