JuD: The Dependable Terrorist

Jul 19, 2014, at 11:22 pm

On June 25, 2014, a US State Department media note announced amendments to the Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) and Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) entity designations of Lashkar e Toiba (LeT) to add the following aliases: Jama'at ud Dawa (JuD), Al-Anfal Trust, Tehrik e Hurmat e Rasool, and Tehrik e Tahafuz Qibla Awwal. In conjunction with these actions, the Department of the Treasury also designated two LeT senior members as SDGTs Nazir Ahmad Chaudhry and Muhammad Hussein Gill. Ahmad has been a senior leader of LeT since the early 2000s, and has served as its 'vice-president', and a member of its central leadership. Hussein Gill, one of the group's founders, has been an accountant for the LeT for more than ten years and, more specifically, has served as the outfit's 'chief financial officer' and headed its accounts department for several years.
