The Lashker-e-Toiba, which was renamed Jamaat-ud-Dawa after it was outlawed, had an office at Salman Terrace in Gulshan-e-Iqbal, near the National Stadium, that was closed after the government banned it, reports said.

The LeT opened a temporary office at Jamia Darasat al-Islamia, opposite Safari Park in Gulshan-e-Iqbal, and after Musharraf's resignation on Monday, the main office at Salman Terrace has been reopened, the Daily Times reported on Thursday.

Similarly, the Jaish-e-Mohammad too reopened its office in Manghopir on Wednesday. Before it was banned, the JeM had its office in Nazimabad and that office remains closed.

The Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan, now known as Ahle Sunnat-waal-Jamaat Pakistan, had its headquarters at Masjid Siddique-e-Akbar near Nagan Chowrangi in north Karachi. Even after it was banned, it stayed active in the same area.

Though the office remains closed, Sipah leaders have been conducting meetings in the building for the past two days, the paper reported.

The central leader of the Sipah, Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Nadeem, told Daily Times that the ban on all religious organisations, including his group, was a part of the "American" agenda.
