Hours after a volunteer for Hafiz Saeed’s Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) died in a shootout in Pakistan on Sunday, buzz swirled about the fate of Saeed, one of the founders of the terrorist organisation Lashkar-e-Taiba.

Amid unconfirmed reports about his injuries, there were indications that he was safe.

Earlier, multiple media reports and social media buzz had also suggested that Saeed’s aide Abu Qatal had been killed in the attack.

However, News18 could not independently verify the reports.

Meanwhile, an official word on Saeed’s injuries, if any, was awaited.

The attack reportedly took place in Mangla – Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.

Saeed, who co-founded the Pakistan-based Islamist militant group, is on the Investigation Agency’s (NIA) most wanted list.
