It further stated that Pakistan should counter terror financing and bring the perpetrators of terrorist attacks to justice.
On Wednesday, an anti-terrorism court (ATC) indicted JuD chief Hafiz Saeed and other party leaders, who had been booked in July this year in multiple cases related to alleged terror financing and money laundering.
On July 3, leaders of the JuD had been booked in various cases under the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA), 1997. The Counter-Terrorism Department, which registered the cases, had said that the JuD was involved in terror financing via massive funds collected through non-profit organisations including Dawat-ul-Irshad Trust, Muaz Bin Jabal Trust, Al Anfaal Trust, Al Hamd Trust and Al Madina Foundation Trust.
