Pakistan: Hafiz Saeed gets 5 years in jail

A Lahore anti-terrorism court convicted Jamatud Dawa leader Hafiz Saeed in two terror-financing cases. 

Hafiz Saeed was slapped with a prison sentence of five and a half years and a fine of Rs15,000 in each case. 

The sentences of both cases will run concurrently. He was convicted under ATA Section 11-F (2) and 11-N. 

The court had earlier reserved its verdict in the two cases on February 6.
