JeM chief Masood Azhar "unwell", confined to home: Pakistan
New Delhi, Mar 1 (UNI) Jaish-e-Mohammed chief Masood Azhar is so "unwell" that he "can't even leave his house", Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said on Friday.
"He is in Pakistan, according to my information. He is very unwell.
"He is unwell to the extent that he cannot leave his house because he is really unwell. That's the information I have," Qureshi told CNN.
The terror mastermind's group had carried out a series of attacks in India, including the February 14 Pulwama attack in which 40 CRPF personnel died.
India has handed over to Pakistan a dossier with "specific details of the JeM complicity" in Pulwama attack.
Qureshi said that Pakistan will take action against the JeM chief if presented with "evidence that can stand in a court of law".
"If they have solid, inalienable evidence that is acceptable to courts of Pakistan, share it with us so that we can convince the people and we can convince the independent judiciary of Pakistan," Qureshi said.
"We need to satisfy the legal process," he said.
