Jammu: Even as Kashmir turns tense after killing of Hizb-Ul-Mujahideen militant Burhan Wani, Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD) chief Hahiz Saeed and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen founder Sayeed Salahuddin have reportedly vowed to avenge the killing of the Hizbul poster boy.

Reports on Monday said that a small prayer meeting was held in the memory of Burhan Wani at Hizbul’s Muzaffarabad base on Saturday and the gathering was addressed by both Saeed and Salahuddin during which they vowed to take revenge of Wani’s killing and hailed his ‘martyrdom’.

Hafiz Saeed, who was accompanied by some of the key members of JuD’s cyber cell, also held extensive meetings with Hizb-ul chief Sayeed Salahuddin and his close associates in Muzaffarabad.

It has now come to light that both JuD and Hizbul has been working together to aid the separatist groups active in the Kashmir Valley with the support from Pakistan.

Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs was also quick to take advantage of the situation in Kashmir and called the encounter of wanted Hizbul militant Burhan Wani an “extrajudicial killing of a Kashmiri leader”.
