Serious questions are being raised over Pakistan’s alleged move to announce a PKR 7 million reward for information leading to the capture of Masood Azhar, the founder of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and a UN-designated terrorist.
Critics are questioning whether such a reward represents a genuine counter-terrorism measure or an attempt to project compliance before international watchdogs such as FATF.
Masood Azhar has long been on the international counter-terrorism radar. The key question now is: Is Pakistan genuinely taking action against him, or is the reward announcement simply a strategy to convince the international community that action is being taken?
🔴 Can Pakistan convince FATF with a reward announcement—or will the world demand real action?
