In a shocking turn of events, Sajid Mir, a wanted terrorist both in the US and India, has been reportedly poisoned inside a Pakistani jail. The Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander is now on a ventilator, adding to the mystery surrounding the sudden health crisis. Mir, who played a key role in the infamous 26/11 terror attacks in Mumbai, has been incarcerated at Kot Lakhpat jail since his sentencing in an anti-terrorism court last year.
Speculations and Geopolitical Intrigue
While initial reports suggest that Mir’s poisoning might be an attempt on his life, speculation arises regarding the authenticity of these claims. Some sources hint at a possible ruse by the Pakistan army and the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) to manipulate international perceptions and mitigate actions against the LeT commander. The timing of the incident, just before his supposed transfer to another prison due to a perceived threat, adds another layer to the intrigue.
Sajid Mir’s Role in 26/11 Mumbai Attacks
Sajid Mir, aged in his mid-40s, gained notoriety as a key conspirator in the 26/11 terror attacks that shook Mumbai in 2008. Accused of providing crucial intelligence to the terrorists involved, Mir was sentenced last year to eight years in jail on terror financing charges. With a USD 5 million bounty on his head, announced by the FBI, Mir’s potential extradition to the United States has been a matter of concern for Pakistani authorities.
ISI’s Role and International Ramifications
Reports also suggest that the poisoning incident might be an orchestrated move by the ISI to prevent Mir’s extradition, especially given the substantial bounty on his head. The alleged attempt to fake his death could be a strategic maneuver to thwart international efforts aimed at holding him accountable for his role in the 26/11 attacks.
