40 security personnel were killed after a terror attackon a CRPF convoy in South Kasmir's Pulwama. According to reports, Interpol hasissued red notices to Maulana Masood Azhar of Jaish-e-Mohammad and threeothers.
The Pulwama terror attack has brought the relationsbetween Pakistan and India to an all time low with situation becoming tense.
The National Investigation Agency is probing the terrorcase and reportedly, they are hoping that the authorities in Pakistan will takestringent and sincere action against terror outfits headed by Azhar and hisaides who are believed to be hiding in Pakistan.
Besides issuing red notices to Azhar, the arrest warrantshave been issued against his brothers, Abdul Rauf Asghar and Ibrahim Arthar andhis cousing Ammar Alvi.
In the wake of Financial Action Task Force (FATF)reviewing Pakistan's actions against terror funding in the country, Pakistan isyet to implement action plan of the task force.
Pakistan has been put in "grey list" while theFATF plenary meeting during February 22-25 will take a final call on Pakistan. Rednotices were previously issued against Azhar and Rauf while fresh interpol noticeshave also been issued. They are also accused for attacking Indian parliament in2001 as well as attack on the Pathankot airbase in 2016.
Another Interpol notice on Rauf is due to his role inhijacking Indian Airlines’s Flight IC-814 in 1999. A counterterrorism officialon the condition of anonymity spoke to Hindustan Times. They said, “Azhar andhis brother live freely in Pakistan despite killing hundreds of innocentpeople…they are globally designated wanted terrorists and have three to fourInterpol red notices pending against them. Pakistan must arrest them and handthem over to India.”
As Pakistan had issued arrest warrant against Azhar, thesources in counter terrorism team termed it an eye wash. Meanwhile Chinar-Corpsof Indian Army posted on their Twitter account that India remembers the Pulwamaattack.
