The Foreign Office has officially confirmed India’s extradition request for Hafiz Saeed, the banned Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief.
Mumtaz Zahra Baloch, the spokesperson for the Foreign Office, confirmed that Pakistan received India’s request concerning Hafiz Saeed.
The extradition demand from India pertains to what's been labeled as a money laundering case, as highlighted by the Foreign Office spokesperson. However, she emphasized that there exists no formal agreement between Pakistan and India specifically addressing the bilateral extradition of accused individuals.
It’s notable that in the previous year, Lahore's court sentenced Hafiz Saeed to 31 years in prison in connection to cases involving illegal funding.
