Take strong action against JeM chief MasoodAzhar: India to Pakistan
New Delhi: India on Friday demanded strong action from Pakistan against Jaish-e-Mohammed chief MasoodAzhar, after a report emerged that he delivered a speech recently at a public gathering in Bahawalpur.
Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) Spokesperson RandhirJaiswal said if the report is correct, then it has exposed Pakistan’s “duplicity” in containing terrorist activities.
“We demand that strong action be taken against him (Azhar) and he should be brought to justice. There has been denial that he is not there in Pakistan,” Jaiswal said.
“If the reports are correct, then it exposes the duplicity of Pakistan. MasoodAzhar is involved in cross-border terror attacks on India and we want that strong action be taken against him,” he added.
Jaiswal made the remarks in response to a question at his weekly media briefing.
