Pervez Musharraf says he is Lashkar’s biggest supporter, likes Hafiz Saeed too

Former Pakistan president Pervez Musharraf has admitted he is the biggest supporter of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and that he is also “liked” by the militant group and the Jamaat-ud-dawa (JuD).
“I am the biggest supporter of LeT and I know they like me and JuD also likes me,” ANI quoted Musharraf telling Pakistan’s ARY News.
When asked if he’s similarly appreciative of LeT’s founder and 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks mastermind Hafiz Saeed, the former president said Saeed “is involved in Kashmir” and he “supports” that involvement.
The 74-year-old further is further quoted by ANI as saying in the TV interview that he was always in favour of action in Jammu and Kashmir and of “suppressing Indian Army in Kashmir”. “They (LeT) are the biggest force. India got them declared as terrorists by partnering with the United States. Yes they (LeT) are involved in Kashmir and in Kashmir, it is between us and India, ” he said.

It should be noted that the LeT is banned in Pakistan since 2002. And the decision to ban the organisation was taken by the Musharraf government only.
