#Pak sponsored LeT and JeM must be targeted to free India of terror

In the coming weeks, the Paris-based money-laundering watchdog, the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), is set to review Pakistan’s performance on countering terror financing.

Once again, all eyes will be on whether Pakistan will be 'blacklisted' for promoting terrorism or will remain in the 'grey list' as the financing watchdog meets for its next session in April 2022.

Pakistan is on the “grey list” for its failure to address the problem of terrorism financing since 2018.Every time before the periodic review meeting, Pakistan puts up some facade of compliance by showing that it is

cracking down on terrorist financial networks in the country but after the meeting is over, it resorts to the same old tricks.

Last year during the October meeting, Pakistan had lied to FATF that the UN-designated terror chief of Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) Maulana Masood Azhar was “missing” and “untraceable”.

The LeT and the JeM both are Punjab based groups that have deep links with the Pakistani deep state with the sole objective of targeting India and radicalizing the Indian hinterland through local proxies.
