Pak warned: India slaps terrorist tag on 23 JeM & LeT operatives, UAPA terrorist list swells to 80

The Union Home Ministry has designated 23 Pakistan-based operatives linked to terrorist organisations including Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) as individual terrorists under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). The individuals are accused of involvement in infiltration, recruitment, arms supply and planning terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir. Several of those named are close aides of LeT founder Hafiz Saeed, the mastermind behind multiple attacks on Indian soil. With this move, the total number of individuals designated as terrorists under the UAPA has risen to 80. The designation empowers agencies such as the NIA to freeze assets, block funding and impose restrictions on the listed individuals. Watch the full report for all the details.
