Former Pakistan Minister Sheikh Rasheed Praises Terrorist Hafiz Saeed

Former Pakistan Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed publicly praised Lashkar-e-Taiba chief Hafiz Saeed while sharing a stage with senior LeT commanders at a recent event.

Rasheed, who served as minister from 2020 to 2022, declared himself a slave of Saeed and issued inflammatory threats against India, claiming the country would be destroyed if it looked toward Pakistan.

The event featured LeT commander Khalid Masood Sandhu and advisory committee member Qari Muhammad Yaqoob Sheikh, with Rasheed alleging his past expulsion from the US was linked to his association with Saeed.
