Jaish-e-Mohammad Chief Maulana Masood Azhar has threatened to retaliate if Pakistan shuts down terrorist groups operating against India.
Writing in a Jihadi magazine, Azhar has said that his army won’t let his enemies celebrate if he is held.
Masood Azhar is sought by India for masterminding the recent Pathankot terror attacks. Pakistan had said that it had received intelligence on the perpetrators of the Pathankot attacks.
Azhar said, “I have prepared an army that adores death. To uproot this army is not in the power of our enemies. God willing, this army will not let our enemies celebrate, nor occasion for anyone to miss my presence.
Azhar also issued a veiled warning to Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif for engaging in talks with his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi.
“The rulers of our country are sad that we have disturbed their friends. They wish to arise on the Day of Judgment to be judged as friends of (Prime Minister Narendra) Modi and (former Prime Minister) Atal Behari Vajpayee,”Azhar wrote.
The Jaish chief wrote in a jihadi based magazine dated January 26.
Chiding Sharif, Azhar added: “Acting on the orders of others, Pakistan’s rulers have reduced their own country into a heap of fire and explosive. Every single one of them comes, spreads fire and then escapes abroad”.
This comes even as India has maintained that they have provided several proofs to Pakistan, including call records, which reveal the hand of JeM chief Maulana Masood Azhar in the Pathankot terror attacks.
