Pakistan bans Hafiz Saeed's terror groups JuD, FIF

Pakistan has formally banned Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed-led Jamaat-ud-Dawa and its subsidiary Filah E Insaniat Foundation by the Interior Ministry under Anti Terrorism Act 1997. The move came after reports suggested that the organisations were not banned by Pakistan despite its announcement a fortnight ago and the two organisations continue to be only in the list of groups under watch.
