Lahore, Dec. 8 : The banned militant outfit Lashkar-e-toiba has said that it has devised ways at the grassroots level to circumvent a Pakistan Government move to curb its activities.

Authorities in Islamabad have ordered the police to prevent banned militant organizations like the Lashkar from collecting the hides of sacrificial animals.

A member of Lashkar-e-Toiba said that the “organisation has already devised a grassroots-level strategy to collect hides.”

“Each member of the organisation has been provided with a target for hide collection from their respective areas. The hides would be sent to the mainstream through a well-organised set-up,” the Daily Times quoted him as saying further.

After the Mumbai attack, India has blamed Pakistan for not cracking down on banned organisations masterminding such attacks.

The Pakistan Government, however, has denied the Indian claim and decided to take extraordinary measures to neutralize all aspersions being raised against it.

Police officers have also been directed to ensure that militant groups do not install banners for publicity.

These measures are being taken to ensure that banned groups do not establish collection centers. (ANI)
