The founder of banned outfit Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD), Hafiz Mohammad Saeed who is under a $10 million US bounty, Tuesday offered humanitarian aid to the United States as it battles superstorm Sandy. Hafiz Mohammad Saeed said his organisation was ready to offer every possible help to the storm-hit American people. "Jamaat-ud-Dawa is ready to send its volunteers, doctors, food, medicines and other relief items on humanitarian grounds if the US government allows us," Saeed said in a statement.
"America may have any opinion about us, it may fix bounties on our heads but as followers of the teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), we feel it is our Islamic duty to help Americans trapped in a catastrophe." Saeed's statement said the charity had carried out relief work in Indonesia and Sri Lanka after the Indian Ocean tsunami in December 2004.
