Pakistan announces terrorism finance crackdown on LeT

Pakistan's counter-terrorism department said it had launched 23 cases against LeT head Hafiz Saeed and 12 aides for using five trusts to collect funds and donations for Lashkar-e-Taiba, blamed by India and the United States for the attacks in Mumbai that killed 166 people. Two banned LeT-linked charities, Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) and Falah-i-Insaniat Foundation (FIF), were also targeted, the department said in a statement.
