Hafiz Abdul Rahman Makki, the deputy chief of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and a key figure in the 2008 Mumbai terror attack, passed away on Friday, December 27, in Pakistan after suffering a heart attack.
Makki had been battling health issues for the past few days and was receiving treatment for high sugar levels at a private hospital in Lahore at the time of his death.
Makki played a significant role in financing the horrific 26/11 Mumbai attacks, which claimed the lives of 166 people. Nine terrorists were killed during counter-terror operations, while one, Ajmal Amir Kasab, was captured alive.
In addition to his involvement in the Mumbai attacks, Makki was also implicated in the 2000 Red Fort attack, where six LeT militants stormed the iconic fort on December 22, 2000, and opened fire on security forces guarding the premises.
Makki was designated a “global terrorist” by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), which imposed sanctions on him under multiple resolutions. The UNSC’s declaration led to an assets freeze, travel ban, and arms embargo against him.
Makki’s death marks the end of a controversial figure who was responsible for several acts of terror and is a reminder of the ongoing efforts to bring justice for the victims of these attacks.
