‘Fear God’: Masood Azhar quashes death rumours; warns liberals, Pakistan from attacking ‘JeM institutions’

Islamabad: Hours after Pakistan launched a crackdown on terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed under National Action Plan (NAP) the terror group kingpin Masood Azhar issued a stern warning to the country’s ruling establishment to stop persecuting mosques and true Muslims.

In the 11:41 minutes audio clip uploaded on JeM chat platforms Azhar talks about India, Pulwama attack and liberals in Pakistan. Full of personal stories and narratives, Azhar starts his speech with his fake death story which circulated in the media. Saying that he is alive and doing well, he calls on his followers to start a jihad against India for oppressing Kashmiris.

In the next part of the speech he talks about liberals like Malala and says that Pakistan being an Islamic country should not allow them to take over the country.

“These liberals couldn’t tolerate the Islamisation of Pakistan under Zia-ul-Haq so just imagine what will happen if people like us rise against them,” said Azhar. Haq pushed for Sharization in the country and was directly responsible for turning Pakistan into a global centre for political Islam.

Slamming India for putting pressure on Pakistan from all corners and Pakistan for succumbing under the pressure, Azhar says that the political leadership in the country has failed to understand India’s ploy.

Taking a dig at Pakistan’s foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Azhar says that he was saying things under pressure and even then it is failing. Qureshi had earlier accepted that Azhar is in Pakistan but said that “he is really unwell and not even in a position to leave his house.”
