JeM directly or indirectly responsible for journalist Daniel Pearl's death: MEA

Vikram Misri, Secretary of the Ministry of External Affairs, stated that Jaish-e-Mohammed had a direct or indirect role in the death of Wall Street Journal journalist Daniel Pearl. He highlighted Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh's involvement, who lured Pearl, connecting individuals and institutions. The attack on Jaish-e-Mohammed's facility in Bahawalpur is a fitting response to this unfortunate incident.
