Masood Azhar’s Brother Mohammad Tahir Anwar Reported Dead in Bahawalpur

The undisclosed cause is drawing scrutiny from Indian security services.

Overview

  • Pro-JeM Telegram channels announced Anwar’s death, with funeral prayers held Monday night at Jamia Masjid Usman Wali in Bahawalpur.
  • No cause has been disclosed, with no official explanation from Pakistani authorities.
  • Indian intelligence agencies are tracking the case because of Anwar’s reported influence inside Jaish-e-Mohammed.
  • Reports describe him as a longtime senior figure involved in the group’s training and ground operations.
  • The development follows last year’s Indian strikes under Operation Sindoor on JeM sites in Bahawalpur, which Masood Azhar said killed several relatives and aides.
