However, the verdict maintained that all the four co-accused have accepted to their membership to Al-Anfaal Trust prior to its proscription.The Anti-Terror Court (ATC) decision has been given as per Section-11-1(2) of the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) 1997.The decision comes at a time when Pakistan is gearing up to present its progress report before the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), which is grilled Islamabad for failing to take strong actions to curb terror-financing and money-laundering.The FATF had also called on Pakistan to take action against JUD Chief Hafiz Saeed and his affiliated members along with organisations associated with the proscribed organizations.Sending Hafiz Saeed to jail first and now following it with imprisonment for top four leaders of JUD is going to help Islamabad's case in front of the FATF.( With inputs from IANS )
