Hafiz Saeed has been released from house arrest

Lashkar-e-Tayyaba (LeT) founder, Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, blamed for the 2008 Mumbai attack, has been set free by a Pakistani court, his spokesperson has said.
Indian authorities suspect Saeed to be the mastermind of the deadly Mumbai attacks. He is likely to be freed by Thursday.
Saeed, a United Nations designated “terrorist” whom the United States has placed a $10 million bounty on, had been placed under house arrest in the eastern city of Lahore in January by the provincial government, under anti-terrorism laws.
On Wednesday, a judicial review body of the Lahore High Court rejected a government request to renew his detention for a further 90 days, his spokesman Nadeem Awan told Al Jazeera.
“When the government was not able to present any evidence to justify [Saeed’s] continued detention, the court ordered his release when his current detention order expires [on Thursday],” said Awan.
“He will be a free man.”
