The move comes amid international pressure after the Kashmir terrorist bombing that triggered a new India-Pakistan confrontation.
By Shaiq Hussain and Pamela Constable Pamela Constable Foreign correspondent covering Afghanistan, Pakistan, South Asia, Latin America and immigration Email Bio Follow March 5 at 10:13 AM ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Pakistan’s Interior Ministry announced Tuesday that authorities have arrested 44 people affiliated with outlawed organizations, including two relatives of the leader of an extremist group that claimed responsibility for a Feb. 14 terrorist attack in Indian-controlled Kashmir.
The two arrested men, identified as Mufti Abdul Rauf and Hammad Azhar, were both on a list of suspects submitted by India to Pakistani authorities in an official dossier after the bombing that killed 40 paramilitary policemen in Kashmir, the Himalayan region that is claimed by both countries. India has long accused Pakistan of sheltering militant organizations that launch attacks across the Line of Control, and it has repeatedly demanded a crackdown on Jaish-e-Muhammad and other militant groups that use violence to try to force India to relinquish its claims on Kashmir. Pakistan has routinely denied those claims and said it provides only moral and political support for Kashmiri Muslim demands.
