Following the November 26, 2008 terror attacks in Mumbai, the Pakistani government banned various Pakistani terror organizations, among them Jamaatud Dawa, the charity arm of the leading jihadist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT). Both the Jamaatud Dawa and LeT – along with various groups associated with them and their leaders – have been outlawed by the UN Security Council. Later, the group renamed itself Falah-e-Insaniat Foundation. After the Pakistani ban, the websites of Jamaatud Dawa and its associated publications were closed down.
