Pakistan-Based JeM Launches Online Jihadi Course For Women Charging PKR 500

IN SHORTThe banned group Jaish‑e‑Mohammed (JeM) in Pakistan has launched an online training programme titled “Tufat al-Muminat” exclusively for women, with a registration fee of PKR 500 (~INR 156). The move underscores the militant group’s efforts to expand recruitment and fundraising via digital platforms and gender-specific mobilisation.

TL;DR

  • The course is part of JeM’s newly formed women’s wing, Jamaat ul‑Muminat, aimed at engaging female participants.
  • Women enrolling in the programme will pay PKR 500 and receive online sessions on the group’s ideological ‘duties’.
  • The launch marks a strategic shift to digital radicalisation and fundraising by extremist groups.
  • The initiative is monitored by security analysts as a potential escalation of female involvement in Islamist militancy.
  • This development triggers concerns about evolving recruitment tactics and cross-border terror financing in the region.
