India hits out at UN rapporteur for bias in counter-terror report, affirms Dawood Ibrahim in Pakistan
- On Wednesday, Indian diplomat Raghoo Puri challenged a UN report by Special Rapporteur Ben Saul, objecting to the characterization of D-Company as an "India-based" organization.
- India argued the report failed to reflect Ibrahim's status as a fugitive wanted for the 1993 Mumbai serial bombings, while UN records place him in Pakistan.
- "Human rights framework cannot be the refuge of the perpetrators of terror," Puri said, criticizing the use of human rights mechanisms to justify extremism.
- Separately, Puri rejected comments from the Pakistani delegation regarding Jammu and Kashmir, dismissing them as "pure propaganda" made for narrow political gains.
- India continues to advocate for high standards of impartiality when UN experts release reports, citing the 1267 sanctions regime to address factual inaccuracies affecting Member States.
