Jammu: NIA court issues non-bailable warrant against LeT founder Hafiz Saeed
Jammu, Jul 14: A special NIA court has issued a non-bailable warrant against Hafiz Saeed, the Pakistan-based chief of the proscribed terror outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba, in connection with a case pertaining to the ongoing probe into the Pahalgam terror attack. The order was passed by the Special Judge of the NIA Court on July 8, two days after the National Investigation Agency (NIA) filed a supplementary chargesheet against Saeed in the Pahalgam terror attack case. Saeed, designated a global terrorist by India and the United States, is also considered the mastermind of the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks. The supplementary chargesheet, filed before the special NIA court in Jammu, charges the 76-year-old Saeed in both his personal capacity and as the chief of the proscribed Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and its proxy front, The Resistance Front (TRF). He has been booked under multiple provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023, and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967. According to the court order, the NIA informed the court that absconding terrorist Saeed, a resident of Sargodha in Pakistan's Punjab province, is an accused in Pahalgam terror attack and has been deliberately evading arrest. The agency sought the issuance of an open-dated non-bailable warrant against him to initiate further proceedings in the matter and take legal action against him at any further investigation. Arrest and custodial interrogation of the accused (Saeed) are necessary for a fair, complete and effective investigation. As such non-bailable warrant of arrest is issued against him and is forwarded it to the Deputy Inspector General (DIG), NIA Jammu, for execution in accordance with law, the order said. On April 22 last year, terrorists killed 26 people, mostly tourists, at Pahalgam in south Kashmir.

Union Bank of India Selects Leegality's Consentin Platform for DPDP Compliance
Leegality has been engaged by Union Bank of India, one of India's largest public sector banks, to implement its Consentin platform as part of the Banks DPDP compliance. The engagement marks one of the more significant DPDP compliance rollouts in India's public sector banking space to date. Union Bank of India Engages Leegality's Consentin for DPDP Compliance The DPDP Act (Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023) is a new data protection law that strictly regulates how businesses in India can collect, process and use customer data. The Act and accompanying rules have a compliance deadline of May 13, 2027. Every business that handles personal data in India will soon be required to implement systems for consent, data processing, and governance. Banks handle large volumes of sensitive financial and personal data, making early action on the DPDP Act especially important for the sector. With the compliance deadline approaching, banks are increasingly expected to have their consent and data governance systems ready well ahead of time. The engagement has already shown initial results, with Cookie Consent being successfully implemented on Union Bank of Indias Corporate Website. Cookies are small files stored by a visitor's browser to remember preferences and track behaviour and under the DPDP Act, they can only be set after a visitor gives clear, informed consent. With the DPDP deadline approaching, businesses across India are now racing to ensure that cookie practices are compliant - making it an early and visible marker of a company's broader compliance efforts. The implementation of Consent Management and Data Discovery capabilities is currently underway across the Banks applications to support its broader data privacy and compliance initiatives. Consentin consolidates all of an enterprise's DPDP needs - spanning consent management, privacy notices, data retention and withdrawal, cookie compliance, privacy assessments, third-party risk management, and regulatory breach reporting - into a single, easy-to-use platform. A unified dashboard gives compliance teams complete visibility into consent status and data flows across the organisation. It can be deployed on-prem or as a SaaS solution, depending on the enterprise's infrastructure. " We're proud to be trusted by an institution of Union Bank of India's scale with its DPDP compliance foundation, " said Shivam Singla, CEO, Leegality . " We believe their move will help set the pace for how the wider banking sector approaches privacy compliance ." About Consentin Consentin is a DPDP compliance platform, developed by Leegality, built to meet the full spectrum of privacy compliance needs for Indian enterprises through one unified, secure platform. Leegality is a document infrastructure platform that is used by more than 5000 Indian companies to build paperless workflows for agreements, forms and other legal documents. Every year, Leegality processes over 50 million eSigns and 3 million eStamps. About Union Bank of India Union Bank of India is one of the country's leading public sector banks, headquartered in Mumbai and established on November 11, 1919.
