Pakistan has registered fake and weak Police First Information Reports or FIRs against terror groups and terrorists operating in the country, the New Indian Express has reported.

According to the report, sources revealed that on July 1, a FIR was registered at Gujranwala police station based on the information provided by a 'source' against a land deal by members of banned Daawat-wal-Irshad, a subsidiary organisation of Lashkar-e-Tayyeba (LeT), which is headed by Hafiz Muhammad Saeed.

The FIR has been drafted in lay terms which may not stand the scrutiny of law at subsequent stages, say legal sources.

There is no mention in the FIR against LeT chief Hafiz Muhammed Saeed and four others including Abdul Ghaffar, Hafiz Masood, Amir Hamza and Malik Zafar Iqbal about the time since the land was in possession of the terrorists.

The information comes just days before a crucial meeting of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in Bangkok, the report said.

The Financial Action Task Force, also known by its French name, Groupe d'action financière, is an intergovernmental organization founded in 1989 on the initiative of the G7 to develop policies to combat money laundering.
