The Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in Lahore, Pakistan sentenced Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, leader of the terrorist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), to five years in prison for terror financing on Friday.

The Punjab Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) arrested Lakhvi on January 2, 2021 for running a medical dispensary to collect and disburse funds for terrorist activities. The ATC charged Lakhvi under the country’s Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA).

Lakhvi is said to be responsible for the 2008 Mumbai attacks that left 172 people dead. Ten gunmen carried out the attacks in various busy locations throughout Mumbai.

In addition to the five year sentence, the court fined Lakhvi 300,000 rupees. The court also ordered the dispensary be handed to the state.
