Mangalore Today News Network

LAHORE, Dec 25, 2017: Ignoring all official and political warnings, Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed has opened the first political office of  Milli Muslim League (MML) in Lahore district.

Saeed, the co-founder of Lashkar-e-Toiba and chief of Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD), was freed a Pakistan court after being under housearrest for 297 days.

Milli Muslim League (MML) has been touted as the political face of the JuD.

Saeed inaugurated an office of the Milli Muslim League (MML), the political face of the terror outfit JuD, on Mohni Road and listened to civic problems of the area people, a report in Pakistan daily Dawn stated.

Pakistan’s Interior Ministry has opposed the registration of MML as a political party with the Election Commission by terming it as an "offshoot of proscribed entities".

The Ministry`s opposition came after a security agency`s report expressing apprehension that the registration of MML as a political party "would breed violence and extremism in politics".
