Pakistani Javelin thrower Arshad Nadeem who won a gold medal at the Paris Olympics 2024 has been seen with a Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist in some past images, trigggering a social media discussion about the extent to which the Islamic terror cottage industry penetrates the lives of the average citizens in the neighboring countries. An OSINT handle on X shared a video of the Pakistani Olympic gold medalist with LeT terrorist Muhammad Harris Dar.
In the video, Arshad Nadeem and Lashkar terrorist Muhammad Harris Dar are seen having a conversation wherein Dar tells Nadeem that his achievement has made the entire Muslim Ummah proud.

Notably, Lashkar-e-Taiba is a United Nations-designated terrorist organisation. Muhammad Harris Dar is the Joint Secretary of Milli Muslim League, a political party formed by LeT terrorist Hafiz Saeed that functions as a front of LeT. It must be recalled that Hafiz Saeed masterminded the 26/11 Mumbai attacks that killed 166 people. Back in 2018, Milli Muslim League and its officials were designated as Specially Designated Global Terrorists.
“Specifically, OFAC designated seven members of the MML central leadership body, Saifullah Khalid, Muzammil Iqbal Hashimi, Muhammad Harris Dar, Tabish Qayyum, Fayyaz Ahmad, Faisal Nadeem, and Muhammad Ehsan, for acting for on behalf of LeT, a Pakistan-based terrorist group designated in December 2001,” a US Treasury Department press release from 2018 reads.
According to the US records, Muhammad Harris Dar was designated for acting for or on behalf of LeT. “Dar is the Joint Secretary of the MML, and formerly an officer in LeT’s student wing, the Al-Muhammadiya Students (AMS), which the Department of State added as an alias of LeT in December 2016 pursuant to E.O. 13224. As of early 2016, Dar provided first aid and firefighting instruction at an LeT training camp. This camp also included training on weapon skills and assault tactics,” the press release added.

Unsurprisingly, Muhammad Harris Dar often gives anti-India speeches in public rallies. In one such video, Dar can be heard spewing venom against India over Jammu and Kashmir. “The way America had to leave from Afghanistan, Inshallah, India will also be forced to leave Kashmir,” Dar said.
