India to Raise Masood Azhar Issue at FATF Meeting Amid Taliban Denial of His Presence
India plans to challenge Pakistan at the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) plenary meeting in Paris from October 28 to 30 over Islamabad's alleged failure to act against UN-designated terrorist Masood Azhar and other terror groups. India highlights contradictions between Pakistan's claim that Azhar fled to Afghanistan in 2019 and the Taliban's denial of his presence there. The FATF will review Pakistan's efforts to combat terror financing, with India seeking international support to press for stronger action against terror infrastructure linked to attacks in India.
