Lashkar-e-Taiba’s (LeT) deputy chief and Pahalgam terror attack mastermind Saifullah Kasuri has openly admitted the terror group’s association with the Pakistan Army, thus exposing the nexus between the Pakistani military and the terror groups that India has long flagged.

Speaking at an event at a school in Pakistan, Kasuri openly boasted about the Army inviting him to the funerals of its soldiers and claimed that India was fearful of his presence. “Pakistan’s Army invites me to lead funeral prayers. Do you know India is also scared of me?" he was seen saying in a viral video.

Kasuri also claimed that tomorrow belonged to Islam and Pakistan. What was most bizarre was that a terrorist group’s leader was allowed to address young minds at a children’s school in Pakistan. This also confirmed India’s long-standing allegations that terror groups in Pakistan were in cahoots with the military.

The Resistance Front (TRF), an offshoot group linked to the LeT, carried out a barbaric terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam on April 22, 2025, in which 26 tourists were gunned down by terrorists after asking about their religion. The attack sparked a military response by India through Operation Sindoor, in which India decimated terror strongholds in Pakistan.

LeT Rebuilding Headquarters

Earlier, an intelligence dossier seen by CNN-News18 revealed that the LeT has begun the systematic demolition and reconstruction of its headquarters, Markaz Taiba in Muridke, following a devastating Indian Air Force (IAF) strike on May 7.

The May 7 strike, conducted under Operation Sindoor in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, inflicted total structural damage on three key LeT buildings—the red accommodation/storage block and the yellow Umm-ul-Qura training and residential facilities—rendering the Muridke complex operationally defunct.

However, the LeT did not abandon the site. Instead, a well-orchestrated demolition began on August 18, using heavy machinery. By September 7, all core structures were completely razed, clearing the way for reconstruction. The rebuild is being fast-tracked to be completed before February 5, 2026, aligning with Kashmir Solidarity Day and its annual jihad convention, providing both symbolic and propaganda value to the project.
