From Yoshita Singh United Nations, Oct 13 (PTI) Terrorist group al-Qaeda still remains a potent and dangerous force despite considerable disruption in its leadership, India's Permanent Representative to the UN and Chair of the Counter-Terrorism Committee Hardeep Singh Puri said. Puri expressed concern over the threat posed to the Mediterranean region by al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), which he said continues to raise a considerable amount of money from kidnappings for ransom. "Al-Qaeda, despite considerable disruption in its leadership, remains a potent and dangerous force," Puri said in his keynote address at the VII PAM (Parliamentary Session of the Mediterranean) Plenary Session in Malta. The terror group has suffered major setbacks in the deaths of its top leaders Osama bin Laden and Abu Yahya al-libi. He said while the international community has made considerable progress in confronting the scourge of terrorism, according to estimates, the share of terrorism in global violence is at an all-time high. Puri stressed on the need for removing the moral and legal ambiguities that allow terrorists to gain succour and even legitimacy. He noted that progress under mutual legal assistance and extradition cases is still "sketchy" and is yet to be fully mainstreamed as part of regional and international counter-terrorism efforts. Puri reiterated the need to promote and ensure a holistic "zero-tolerance" approach towards terrorism adding that success in the fight against terrorism goes hand-in-hand with progress in strengthening counter-terrorism cooperation and exchange of information at the international, regional and sub-regional level.
