On a fateful day in Karachi's Samanabad area, Mufti Qaiser Farooq, a prominent figure within the Pakistan-based terror outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), met his demise at the hands of unidentified assailants. Farooq, aged 30, was not only a high-ranking member of LeT but also counted among its founding members. His significance within the organization was underscored by his close ties to Hafiz Saeed, the notorious mastermind behind the infamous 26/11 Mumbai terrorist attack. This incident marks a significant development in the ongoing efforts to combat terrorism and extremism in the region.
