Web Desk(National Times)- Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur has vowed to expose India\u2019s role in sponsoring terrorism in Pakistan and the region, a day after New Delhi submitted his recent remarks to the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) as evidence against Islamabad. The Indian government has used Gandapur’s statement to back its allegations that Islamabad supports terrorist elements, officials of the global anti-money laundering watchdog confirmed. \u201cWe arrest the Taliban, but our own institutions get them released, claiming they are their people\u201d \u2014 a statement that drew criticism at home and is now being used by New Delhi to push for Pakistan\u2019s re-listing on FATF\u2019s grey list. In a statement, the KP CM said India submitted his statement to the global anti-money laundering watchdog \u201cout of the context\u201d. \u201cIndia has always been involved in terrorism in Pakistan and the region,\u201d the KP CM said, adding that he was writing a letter to FATF to expose Indian actions in Kashmir. He said the people and forces of Pakistan were making unprecedented sacrifices to uproot terrorism from the country. \u201cMy message to Modi [Indian prime minister] is that we are united to defend Pakistan,\u201d Gandapur said, warning that India was attempting to get Pakistan grey-listed again by \u201cconstructing a false narrative.\u201d Indian authorities have argued that this public admission by a provincial chief minister shows that Pakistan\u2019s institutions continue to aid and protect terrorist elements. The FATF officials said India framed the statement as a formal \u201ccharge sheet\u201d against Pakistan, particularly highlighting Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as a region gravely affected by terrorism and militancy. Pakistan was taken off the FATF grey list in 2022, giving it a clean bill of health on terrorist financing and boosting its reputation among lenders \u2014 essential for Pakistan’s crisis-hit economy. The FATF’s grey list \u2014 in which Pakistan was placed from 2018-2022 \u2014places a country under increased monitoring until it has rectified identified flaws in its financial system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
