He said that India has conveyed the request with all relevant supporting documents. Addressing the weekly briefing, Bagchi said, “The person in question (Hafiz Saeed) is wanted in numerous cases in India. He is also a UN-proscribed terrorist. In this regard, we have conveyed a request along with relevant supporting documents, to the government of Pakistan to extradite him to India to face trial in a particular case. “We have been flagging the issue of activities that he’s been wanted for. This is a recent request,” he added.

“The issue of radical elements normalised and participating in elections in Pakistan...it is an internal affair so let me not comment on it. But, the main streaming of radical outfits in Pakistan is nothing new and has been a part of their state policy for a long time,” Bagchi said.
