The official Twitter account of Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) chief Hafiz Saeed was suspended on Thursday.

The Twitter handle - @hafizsaeedlive was suspended by Twitter following reports by Indian security agencies that it was being used to incite violence following the death of Kashmiri militant Burhan Wani in an encounter last week.

An accused in Mumbai attack, Hafiz Saeed was seen earlier this week participating along with Hizbul Mujahidren chief Syed Salahudeen during a prayer meeting on Wani death.

On Wednesday night, Saeed has launched an onslaught against India following which the agencies approached Twitter to suspend his account.

Earlier also, the Twitter account of Saeed was suspended following India's request. He created a new ID on Twitter in December 2015, following the suspension of the previous account. Saeed reportedly has one more accounts which is maintained by his Cyber team, said officials.
