True Character of Pakistan-Revealed
June 8th, 2009 
Aman Release Pakistan’s true intentions to contain the terrorisms and investigate the Mumbai terror attack got revealed when Lahore High Court judges gave the orders of the release of Jamaat-ud-Dawa leader Mohammad Sayeed who had been kept under the house imprisonment after the Mumbai terror attack. The court said that neither the government has given forceful evidence for his house imprisonment nor the Enforcement of Public Order Regulation was implemented honestly. The court’s decision indicates that he got released because of technical loopholes. It must be learnt that UNO had banned Sayeed led organization Lashker-e-Taeba for its involvement in the terrorist related activities.

The attack was planned by Sayeed’s pupils and they also had arranged for their journey from Karachi to Mumbai. During the attack they were in constant touch with their Pak based bosses through radio phones. Indian secret services and America’s FBI had collected the records of their talks. Pakistani PM This evidence was so strong that Pakistan’s leaders had to accept that Kasab is a Pakistani citizen and the Mumbai attack was planned on the Pakistani soil. But Pakistani government arrested Sayeed and his assistant former military officer only under the Enforcement of [...]
