Pakistan Has No Objection to Extraditing ‘Individuals of Concern’ to India: Bilawal Bhutto
SOUTH ASIA, JUL 4 – Bilawal Bhutto Zardari calls India’s new regional diplomacy approach a 'new abnormal' that raises war risks between nuclear neighbors and threatens peace for 1.7 billion South Asians.
- On July 4, 2025, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari expressed in an Al Jazeera interview that Pakistan is open to handing over certain individuals requested by India as a gesture to build mutual trust, provided there is cooperation from the Indian government.
- This stance follows long-standing difficulties prosecuting cross-border terrorism cases, which Bilawal attributes to India's noncompliance with legal requirements.
- Bilawal clarified that Hafiz Saeed is incarcerated in Pakistan serving a 33-year sentence, while Masood Azhar is believed to be in Afghanistan and remains at large.
- He emphasized that if India cooperates by sharing information about individuals on Pakistani soil, Pakistan would arrest and extradite them, reflecting the need for comprehensive dialogue including terrorism issues.
- Bilawal expressed concern that India's new policy treats every terror act from Pakistan as war, calling this the 'new abnormal' and warning it risks escalating conflict between the nuclear neighbors.
