Mufti Shakir was the founder of the outlawed militant organization Lashkar-i-Islam, which emerged in Pakistan's Khyber tribal region in 2004. He was known for his extremist views and played a significant role in local militant activities, leading to his expulsion from the area due to conflicts with other militant commanders. Shakir's influence waned after his ousting, and he became a controversial figure in the region. He was reported to have succumbed to injuries from a blast in Peshawar.
