India to Serve Hafiz Saeed Court Summons in Lahore Over Pahalgam AttackPreviousNext

India is set to serve court summons on Hafiz Saeed, founder of Lashkar-e-Taiba, in Lahore regarding the 2025 Pahalgam terror attack. The summons will be delivered through diplomatic channels via the Ministry of External Affairs, following a non-bailable warrant issued by a special NIA court. This legal step aims to provide Saeed an opportunity to appear in court while enabling proceedings to continue in his absence if he does not respond. The move is part of India's ongoing investigation and prosecution efforts.
