Pakistans Gold Medalist Arshad Nadeem’s Photo, Video With Lashkar-e-Taiba Associate Muhammad Harris Dar Go Viral- Watch
The controversy was ignited when an OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) account on X shared a video of Nadeem and Dar conversing. In the video, Dar congratulates Nadeem on his Olympic success, claiming that his achievement has made the entire Muslim Ummah proud. Dar’s praise and the footage featuring the two together have raised questions about their association and the potential implications.

Lashkar-e-Taiba, identified as a terrorist organization by the United Nations, has been linked to numerous acts of violence and terrorism. Muhammad Harris Dar, who holds the position of Joint Secretary in the Milli Muslim League (MML), is connected to LeT. The MML, founded by LeT leader Hafiz Saeed, is widely regarded as a front for the terrorist group. Saeed is notorious for orchestrating the 26/11 Mumbai attacks that resulted in 166 deaths.
In 2018, the U.S. Treasury Department labeled MML and its leadership as Specially Designated Global Terrorists. This designation includes Muhammad Harris Dar, who has been involved with LeT’s activities, notably in his role within LeT’s student wing, Al-Muhammadiya Students (AMS). Dar has reportedly received training at LeT camps, covering first aid, firefighting, weapon skills, and assault tactics.
Dar is also known for his anti-India rhetoric, making inflammatory statements at public rallies. In one notable speech, he compared the situation in Kashmir to the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, expressing hope that India would face a similar fate and be forced to leave Kashmir. This rhetoric has further fueled concerns about his associations and the broader implications of such connections.
