Pakistan exposed at UNHRC for sponsoring and exporting terrorism

An European think-tank has exposed Pakistan at UN Human Rights Council for sponsoring and exporting terrorism despite it facing strict regulations by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). Junaid Qureshi, Director of European Foundation for South Asian Studies (EFSAS) draw the council’s attention to the threat that Terrorism and its sponsorship poses to Human Rights.

He said, “Recent FATF pressure on Pakistan has compelled the country’s military establishment to adopt a more selective attitude towards promoting, sponsoring and exporting terrorism. Nothing new as over decades Pakistan has honed this skill into an art.”

Junaid, who is a Kashmiri said in his intervention, “While Hafiz Saeed’s fate will most certainly change for the better when international pressure eases, it appears that the other two terrorists have miraculously managed to outrun the might of the Pakistani intelligence agencies, which all of a sudden lost complete sight of them”.
