Amid the rising tensions between India and Pakistan in the wake of the Pahalgam attack, Hafiz Saeed's son, Talha Saeed, issued a fresh warning to India while revealing his father is "safe" in Islamabad. In a video recently posted online, Talha threatened serious repercussions to India if it took retaliatory action, including the cutoff of water supply to Pakistan.
"Modi Agar Tu Pani Band Karega… Insha'Allah Toh Hum Teri Sans Band Karenge," Pakistan's Talha Saeed said in a public meeting that went viral on social media platforms on Tuesday. "In dariyaan mein khoon bahega" was added by him, threatening violence and bloodshed if there is any Indian action.

In the video, which is undated but went viral on social media, Talha Saeed also raised fears regarding the safety of his father. Hafiz Saeed was the mastermind of the 2008 Mumbai attacks that claimed the lives of 166 people. "There is a fear that Indian forces might attempt to kill my father," he alleged, again fueling tensions across the border.
Hafiz Saeed, now 77 years old, is one of India’s and the United States’ most wanted terrorists. He has been associated with several terror attacks. His son, Talha Saeed, is also a designated terrorist under the provisions of the Unlawful Activities Act and is currently ranked 32nd on India’s list of 57 most wanted terrorists.
'Indian Military Strike Anytime Soon': Pakistan Defence Minister
Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on Monday issued a strong statement, saying India could launch a military strike “at any moment” along the Line of Control (LoC). “There are reports that India may strike at any point… New Delhi will be given a befitting reply,” Asif told. This is the second such warning from the Pakistani government in recent days. Last week, Information Minister Tarar had said that the “next 24–36 hours” were critical, citing intelligence inputs that suggested a retaliatory strike from India.
