Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) founder Hafiz Saeed, accused of masterminding the 2008 Mumbai terror attack, is all set to walk free after about 10 months of house arrest. A Lahore High Court review board on Wednesday rejected an appeal of the Punjab government seeking to extend the Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) chief's detention for three more months and ordered his release. His current detention order expires on Thursday.
Saeed and his four aides— Abdullah Ubaid, Malik Zafar Iqbal Shahbaz, Abdur Rehman and Qazi Kashif Hussain— had been under house arrest since January under the country's Anti-Terrorism Act.
