Pakistan launches an intensified nationwide campaign against the banned Joint Awami Action Committee, targeting financial assets, travel documents, and support networks to curb the group’s activities.
ISLAMABAD: The federal government has launched a sweeping crackdown against the banned Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC), ordering immediate action against individuals allegedly linked to the organization. Authorities have decided to freeze national identity cards, passports, and bank accounts of members and suspected associates in a move aimed at dismantling the group’s operational network.
According to official sources, law enforcement agencies and relevant government departments have been directed to enforce the measures without delay. The strategy is designed to restrict the group’s access to financial resources and limit its ability to function across the country.
Sources revealed that authorities have also sought detailed records of properties allegedly owned by JAAC members and supporters. Provincial administrations and local governments have been instructed to compile information on land holdings, businesses, and other assets connected to individuals associated with the banned organization.
Security and intelligence agencies have been placed on high alert, with officials closely monitoring suspected facilitators and supporters. Investigators are focusing on financial transactions, banking activities, money transfers, business dealings, and property ownership to identify potential sources of logistical or financial support.
Officials believe that targeting financial channels and restricting access to official documentation will significantly weaken the group’s structure and operational capabilities. The measures form part of a broader government strategy to eliminate networks that may assist banned organizations.
