Lashkar moves offices to Valley


By Our Staff Reporter

LAHORE, Dec 24: The Lashkar-i-Taiba, recently declared a terrorist
organization by the United States, has shifted its offices from Pakistan
to Jammu and Kashmir, rededicating itself to the liberation of Kashmir
from Indian occupation.

It will now be headed by Maulana Abdul Wahid of Poonchh, who replaces
Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, chairman of the Jamaat al-Dawa, the new name for the
Markaz al-Dawa wal-Irshad. The Jamaat will carry out a political,
religious and reform programme in Pakistan.Maulana Wahid will lead a
13-member general council.

The changes were announced by Hafiz Saeed at a news conference here on
Monday. These, he said, were meant to counter Indian propaganda against
Pakistan. The Jamaat, he said, would also discharge its obligations with
respect to the defence of the country.

He dismissed the suggestion that the decisions had been taken under
pressure from the government or a foreign country. The Lashkar, he said,
would continue to fight India.

Rejecting the suggestion that the Lashkar activities could lead to
hardships for the people of Pakistan, he said the Mujahideen had always
defended Pakistan. No difficulty faced by Pakistan, he said, could be
attributed to the Mujahideen. Those who believed otherwise, he said, were
under the influence of western propaganda.

Hafiz Saeed said India was working for Akhand Bharat (so- called unified
India including Bangladesh and Pakistan). He claimed that the Mujahideen
were the only obstacle to such designs.

He said it had been as a result of the pressure mounted by the Mujahideen
that the River Chenab had been proposed as international border.
