LeT Commander Admits Over 30 Members Killed in Pakistan, Alleges Indian Involvement
Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander Rizwan Hanif publicly admitted that over 30 members of the group have been killed in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir over the past three to four years. Hanif alleged that these killings were carried out by 'unknown gunmen' linked to Indian intelligence but did not provide evidence. The incidents reportedly occurred in cities including Rawalpindi, Karachi, Peshawar, Rawalakot, and Muzaffarabad. Hanif also made derogatory remarks about Hinduism during his speech. Pakistan has previously accused India of such targeted killings, which India denies.
