Amid the rising tension between India and Pakistan after the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) led Pulwama attack, speculation made the rounds on Sunday that JeM chief Masood Azhar is dead.

However, Pakistan government is yet to make the official confirmation regarding the speculation.

According to Pakistan local media reports, JeM chief was seriously injured during the air strike carried out by the Indian Air Force (IAF).

Earlier, Pakistan's foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi had admitted that Masood Azhar was in Pakistan but added that he is very unwell and is not in a position to even leave his house.
