Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist Rajauallah Nijamni, also known as Abu Saifullah Khalid, was gunned down by unknown assailants in Sindh, Pakistan on Sunday. He was the mastermind behind the 2006 attack on the RSS headquarters. The funeral prayer for Saifullah in Sindh saw the attendance of numerous Lashkar terrorists.
His body was wrapped in the Pakistani flag, and one by one, Lashkar militants performed the funeral prayers.
It is notable that Saifullah was assassinated with a barrage of bullets by unknown gunmen. He was in charge of the Nepal module of Lashkar.

Residing in Pakistan, Saifullah was overseeing recruitment for Lashkar, effectively enlisting terrorists. Following Operation Sindoor, top Lashkar leaders in Pakistan received enhanced protection by the Pakistani Army and ISI. Saifullah was instructed by Lashkar to minimize leaving his home, and his security was bolstered considerably.

Recently, several close associates of Lashkar's chief, Hafiz Saeed, have been assassinated in various Pakistani cities. Saeed himself narrowly escaped a suicide attack near his Lahore residence. During Operation Sindoor, Lashkar's headquarters in Muridke was targeted by the Indian Army and hit with missiles.
Consequently, Pakistani Army and ISI have sent directives to all India's most wanted terrorists, including Saeed's son Talha Saeed, to increase security and minimize movements.
Before Saifullah, another most wanted Indian terrorist, Abu Katal, who shadowed Hafiz Saeed, was also killed in Pakistan on March 16. Abu Katal was known as one of Lashkar's most notorious terrorists linked to major attacks against the Indian army in Kashmir.
Earlier, two other prominent and feared Lashkar terrorists and Hafiz Saeed’s close allies, Hanzala Adnan and Riyaz Ahmad alias Abu Qasim, were assassinated in Karachi in December 2023 and in September 2023 by unknown attackers, respectively. These killings are considered a significant blow to Hafiz Saeed.
