JeM Chief Masood Azhar is Not Dead: Pak Media
From a few days, speculations are rife that Jaish e Mohammad Chief Masood Azhar has died of serious illness. But Pakistan media on Sunday confirmed that this most-wanted terrorist is “alive”.
The media reports claiming that JeM chief is dead are false. The Pakistan media confirmed that Masood is alive after confirming the same from close family members of him. However, his health condition is not revealed.
When asked about medial claiming the death of Masood, Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry said: "I don't know anything at this moment."
The Indian officials said they have got the information only about Masood’s treatment in Army hospital, but not his death.
Last week, the US, the UK, and France came up with a fresh proposal in the UN Security Council to designate Azhar as a global terrorist. The work is under progress.
