LAHORE: An Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) on Thursday reserved its verdicts in two cases pertaining to terror financing against Hafiz Saeed, chief of the proscribed Jamaatud Dawa (JuD). The cases were filed by the Counter-Terrorism Department’s (CTD) Lahore and Gujranwala chapters. The JuD chief was arrested by CTD in July last year, while he was travelling from Lahore to Gujranwala. Saeed is nominated in about 29 cases pertaining to terror financing, money laundering as well as illegal land grabbing. In February last year, Paris-based Financial Action Task Force (FATF) had warned Pakistan to deliver on its commitments to curb terror financing and money laundering.
