Muzaffarabad, Apr 4: Denouncing the US for announcing head-money for Jamat-ud-Dawa (JuD) Chief Hafiz Saeed, the Chairman of United Jihad Council (UJC) and supreme commander of Hizbul Mujahideen Syed Salah-ud-Din has termed it a disdainful act that would further deepen the gap between the Muslim world and the West.
“The announcement of bounty for Hafiz Saeed by US is a calculated move to appease India besides hurting the sentiments of Muslims of the subcontinent,” the Hizb chief made these remarks while addressing an extraordinary session of the UJC here on Wednesday. He said that the whole world knows that Hafiz Saeed is doing social welfare work for last several years on the platform.
He said the US welfare organizations by themselves had admitted and acknowledged the role of the JuD during the earthquake of 2005 and the flash-floods of 2011 in Sindh.
He was of the view that Hafiz Saeed was being targeted as he and his organization was against the US drone attacks and the re-opening of NATO supplies routes through Pakistan.
Urging the government of Pakistan to discharge its legal and constitutional duties, Salah-ud-Din said the government should ensure full protection to its citizens thereby taking concrete measures both at political and diplomatic level.
The UJC also extended its full support to Hurriyat call for shutdown on April 7 against Dr Fai’s imprisonment. The participants of the meeting also expressed deep sorrow and grief over the sad demise of MC leader Syed Bashir Indrabi and prayed for the departed soul.
