Pakistan plays arrest of four terrorists for fear of FATF blacklisting

(PTI) Lahore, Ta. October 10, 2019, Thursday

There is a possibility that Pakistan will be blacklisted at the meeting of the Financial Action Tax Force (FATF). Harvested crops for fear of blacklisting. The government has arrested four terrorists.

The FATF meeting will take place in Paris from October 12-15. 15 months ago, the FATF had put Pakistan on the gray list, urging them to take stern action against the terrorists. Even then, Pakistan has complied with only 1 of 40 criteria, so the FATF has indicated that Pakistan should be blacklisted.

After that, the Pakistan government was running. If the FATF is blacklisted, the task of obtaining loans from financial institutions around the world will be daunting. Under such circumstances, Pakistan has begun a drama of arresting terrorists.

Four militant leaders of Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jamaat-ud-Dawa were claimed by Pakistan to be jailed. The terrorists were charged with a crime under the Terror Fund Act. Four terror leaders - Zafar Iqbal, Yahya Aziz, Mohammad Ashraf and Abdul Salam - have been prosecuted.

It is worth mentioning that if the FATF blacklisted Pakistan, it would fall into the category of Iran and North Korea. Both of these countries have already been blacklisted. If this organization is blacklisted then its records and records are also taken by global financial institutions.
