A young woman working for women’s rights in tribal regions, Fareeda Kokikhel (26), Director of Sewara, was killed in Jamrud tehsil (revenue unit) of Khyber Agency in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on July 4, reports. According to her family, three men who were hiding in bushes opened fire on Fareeda when she came out of her home in Ghundi in the morning to go to her office in Hayatabad area of Peshawar. The assailants escaped on a motorcycle when members of the family rushed to the place after hearing gunshots. She received a bullet in head and two in neck. Fareeda told a Jamrud-based journalist a month ago that she was “under threat”. But she had not named the people threatening her. “I could even be killed in Peshawar,” Fareeda had responded when the journalist asked if she would move to Peshawar following the threats. She said she had changed her mobile phone number but people threatening her got her new cell number as well and kept on threatening her. Human rights activist Zarteef Afridi was killed in a similar attack on December 8, 2011 in the same area and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) claimed responsibility for the murder.

Reacting to the reopening of NATO supply routes, a hitherto unknown Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) faction on July 10 said that attacks on Army personnel in Gujranwala District of Punjab on July 9 are legitimate, reports Dawn. The group, Idara Pasban-i-Shariat, an offshoot of the TTP, criticised the political and military leadership for striking a deal with the US, saying the leadership had betrayed the nation by resuming supplies to NATO forces in Afghanistan. The cadres of the group distributed pamphlets in Miramshah bazaar in North Wazistan Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). The pamphlet said the Army and the Government had been giving an impression for the last few months that relations with the US had been severed. But now, it said, Generals and the political leadership had opened supplies for NATO forces although the US Government neither tendered an apology nor stopped drone attacks.

At least six militants on July 12 struck a commercial bank branch under Kot Lakhpat Police Station area in Lahore, the provincial capital of Punjab, in broad daylight and fled away after looting PKR two million, reports The Nation. A police officer believed that all the six persons were militants linked with the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and the investigators are repeatedly examining the video footage taken from the CCTV cameras. The modus operandi suggests that the same gang is behind all the bank dacoities that have taken place in Lahore during the last couple of months, the officer added. Sources said that the bank robbery is 17th such incident since April 2011 because the Police investigators have miserably failed to make any breakthrough in all such cases.

The dead bodies of 17 soldiers and a civilian killed in a cross-border attack on June 24 were shifted from Afghanistan to Pakistan on July 12 after militants in Kunar Province (Afghanistan) struck a deal with a jirga from Upper Dir District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, reports Dawn. The jirga comprising elders from Sunai Darra, Sabir Kallay, Maskini and other border villages of Upper Dir held at least 10 rounds of talks with the militants in Kunar Province. According to jirga sources, the bodies were shifted to Sabir Kallay through Shahi Pass in the evening and handed over to the Security Forces. The militants operating under the fugitive chief of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) Swat chapter, Maulana Fazlullah, had reportedly killed the soldiers in an attack in the border area of Sunai Darra. Militants had demanded the release of their 20 cadres imprisoned in different jails in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and it could not be ascertained whether they had handed over the bodies in return for any concessions.

TTP claimed responsibility of July 11 attack on Ichra complex in Lahore in which nine trainee jail staffs were killed and two others injured. “The attackers were 10 in number, riding on three motorbikes and a car. (They) entered Rasool Park Ichra from Ferozpur Road and managed to escape toward Multan Road after the assault,” eyewitnesses said. “The assailants were armed with hand grenades, AK-47 guns and pistols; they distributed themselves into three groups and reached all floors of the building,” Inspector General of Punjab Police Haji Habib-ur Rehman said after visiting the scene. The Jail Department had rented the building since 2007 to house trainees, he said. Currently, 32 Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Jail staffers were residing in the building, Haji Habib added. Earlier reports said those killed were trainee Police officers. It was the second deadly attack on security personnel in Punjab in four days, as Police have been increasingly targeted throughout the country.

Officials, on July 13, warned that the Taliban ban on polio would put 240,000 children at risk in Waziristan Agencies of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), if a vaccination campaign didn’t start by the coming week, reports Daily Times. Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and Hafiz Gul Bahadur group banned polio vaccinations in the Waziristan to protest against US drone attacks. "There is a possibility that we may have to skip the polio campaign in North and South Waziristan because we are not getting clearance from the army nor is the situation conducive," a government health official said. "We have threats from the Taliban. Going to these areas for a polio campaign would be tantamount to putting the lives of our staff in jeopardy," added the official, speaking on the condition of anonymity. Fawad Khan, Director of health services in the FATA, said that talks were ongoing between the administrators and the Taliban, but the health workers had not yet received ‘the green light’ for going ahead in Waziristan. The Lancet medical journal has said vaccination problems led last year to Pakistan's highest number of polio cases in a decade, 198, compared to 144 in 2010.

Army and Police commandos on July 16 foiled an attack by burqa (veil)-clad Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants who planned to take over a Police Station in Bannu city of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), reports Daily Times. Two TTP militants were killed and at least 10 security personnel were injured in the incident. Both the attackers were killed in the clash that lasted for more than three hours, District Police Officer (DPO) Waqar Ahmed said. “As they approached the police station, they first fired shots at the guards and then hurled hand grenades,” DPO Waqar said, adding that as a Police control-room received information about the attack, Police reinforcement and Army soldiers rushed to the spot and cordoned off the area to block any escape route for the militants. TTP spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan told reporters by telephone that the attackers wore suicide vests and one of them blew himself up while the other was killed in the gunbattle.

A tribal jirga (council) of local Ulema and civic leaders on July 17 expressed hope that they would be able to convince the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to permit oral polio vaccine to be given to children, reports Central Asia Online. “We have held talks with elders of the jirga, and they would now meet with Taliban leaders to prevail upon them that vaccination safeguards the children against disabilities and it was the religious duty of the parents to protect their children against diseases,” said Siraj Ahmad Khan, political agent of North Waziristan Agency. Even though a nationwide anti-polio campaign began July 16, 318,000 children in North and South Waziristan could lose their chance to be vaccinated because of TTP threats against the campaign, he added.

The polio prevention campaign suffered a double setback when a foreign doctor of the World Health Organisation associated with the immunisation work and his driver were injured in an attack in Karachi and a tribal jirga planned in North Waziristan to prepare ground for launching the campaign there could not be held because of a curfew in force there and concerns about security of health workers. Official sources in Peshawar said the three-day national immunisation campaign was under way in the entire country except North and South Waziristan where TTP had banned it last month.

A grand jirga of tribal elders, tasked by the Government to persuade militant groups to allow polio vaccination, informed the administration that the ban on immunisation in Waziristan would continue till drone attacks were stopped. A source privy to the meeting said that in plain words the pro-Government jirga had endorsed the ban imposed by a Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) group on polio campaign in North Waziristan Agency. The jirga of tribal elders, Ulema and political authorities, held at the Governor’s Circuit House in Miranshah, discussed ways of resuming polio vaccination in North Waziristan. It was attended by about 300 tribal elders and prominent Ulema from across the tribal agency. Political Agent Siraj Ahmed Khan briefed the jirga on the importance of the campaign. Leaders of the jirga told the Government functionaries that the ban imposed by the Hafiz Gul Bahadur group would continue till the stoppage of drone strikes because innocent people, including children and women, were being killed in such attacks.

At least 11 suspects, including alleged logistical supporter of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and Lyari gangster, were arrested during various raids in the city. Official of the Anti-Extremist Cell (AEC) of the Crime Investigation Department (CID) said that on a tip-off they arrested Naseeb Dad alias Moosa during a raid in Sher Shah area, and recovered a TT pistol from his possession. AEC chief Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Chaudhry Aslam said that the arrested militant is mainly linked with Harkat-ul-Mujahideen al-Almi (HuM-A), but currently is working for the TTP. He said that Naseeb used to provide logistical support to the TTP commanders belonging to the Karachi Chapter and also gave responsibility to generate funds for the TTP in Karachi.

Pakistan on July 20 provided Afghanistan with key “intelligence information” on the hideouts of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in Kunar province, demanding their complete elimination and effective measures by Afghan National Army (ANA) and NATO troops for the prevention of cross-border militant attacks in Pakistani frontier regions of Dir, Bajaur and Chitral, reports Pakistan Today. The intelligence information on Maulvi Fazlullah-led TTP faction, also known as ‘Swat Taliban’, was provided by Pakistani officials to their Afghan counterparts during the daylong visit of Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf to Afghanistan, diplomatic sources said. Fazlullah and dozens of his followers crossed over to Afghanistan and took refuge in Kunar and other nearby regions after they faced defeat at the hands of Pakistani Army in Swat in 2009.

A suicide bomber detonated an explosive laden vehicle near the house of a pro-Government militant commander Maulvi Nabi, killing at least nine persons, including four children, three of them being girls, and injuring 13 others, in a war of attrition between two militant outfits in Speen Tall area of Orakzai Agency in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on July 21, reported Dawn. “This is basically between two militant groups,” Orakzai tribal region’s administrator Khushal Khan told the media. An official said that Maulvi Nabi, a militant commander, had waged a war of attrition against another outfit affiliated with the larger, more powerful Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). “Both groups are involved in killing each other’s men. Maulvi Nabi is not anti-state,” the official said. TTP spokesman in North Waziristan Ehsanullah Ehsan claimed responsibility for the attack. He told reporters that Maulvi Nabi was targeted because he was supporting the Government and was against the Taliban. Maulvi Nabi had joined the TTP as a commander for Hangu District, but later developed differences with the militant organisation and shifted to the neighbouring Speen Tall.

Afghanistan on July 22 warned Pakistan that any further cross-border shelling could significantly harm relations, reports Dawn. More than 300 heavy artillery shells and rockets were fired from Pakistan into Dangam District of eastern Kunar province on July 20, 2012 and July 21, 2012, killing at least four people, provincial spokesman Wasifullah Wasifi said. Afghan officials had added that both Afghan Taliban and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants were operating in the Pakistan-Afghanistan border area. Afghanistan’s Deputy Foreign Minister Jawed Ludin summoned Pakistan’s ambassador in Kabul to discuss the latest barrage of periodic shelling across the Durand Line, a Foreign Ministry statement said. “Any continuation of such reported shelling against Afghan villages could have a significant negative impact on bilateral relations,” the statement quoted Ludin as telling Ambassador Mohammad Sadiq. Both sides agreed to hold a senior-level meeting of military officials soon in Afghanistan’s eastern city of Jalalabad over the shelling and improve military coordination along the Durand Line, the statement added.

Hardly half a year after forming an alliance on the intervention of Taliban chief Mullah Omar, rival groups of the Tehreek-e- Taliban Pakistan (TTP) are once again at each other’s throats following the killing of a top militant blamed on a pro-government commander, reports The Express Tribune. Tension gripped South Waziristan Agency when Hakimullah Mehsud-led TTP threatened to attack the Wana-based Maulvi Nazir group to avenge last week’s murder of Wali Muhammad Wazir. Wali was a younger brother of Nek Muhammad Wazir, the militant commander who had unleashed Talibanisation in Pakistan before he died in the first-ever drone attack in the country in 2004. Wali Muhammad’s henchmen took control of the area to hunt down the murderers, but nobody has been identified thus far. Approximately 200 men are associated with his group, and most are non-local. If fighting breaks out between the TTP and Maulvi Nazir group the new fragile alliance of TTP, Shura Muraqba, which was formed February, 2012 after years of infighting, will be at stake.

The Mullah Fazlullah-led Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) on July 23 warned of attacks during the holy month of Ramadan, saying their jihad is continuing, reports Central Asia Online. TTP spokesman Sirajuddin said the group plans to attack Pakistan from its hideouts in Kunar and Nuristan provinces, of Afghanistan. The TTP fled to those provinces after Pakistani troops drove it out of Swat in 2009. The TTP will attack Malakand Division if its people raise lashkars, he said.

Maulana Waliur Rehman, de-facto chief of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), on July 24 warned Islamabad that if it launches operation in North Waziristan Agency (NWA) IN Federally Administered Tribal Area (FATA), it will face only failure, reports The Nation. “As far as operations in North Waziristan are concerned, the Government will face only failure as they have been facing for the last 10 years in different parts of the tribal regions”, Rehman said. “Despite Government claims of success, they have faced failure in all areas during their operations. The Taliban and Mujahideen are even stronger despite the operations against them.” “If Pakistan launches operations in North Waziristan against the Haqqani network, we will react in the same manner as we have in other regions against the wrong policies of the Pakistan government,” Rehman reiterated in the interview. “The US has long been trying to dismantle the Haqqani network in Afghanistan but they only face failure. Pakistan will also face trouble if it launches operations against the Haqqanis. Such operations will not halt the attacks of the Haqqani network against the US forces in Afghanistan,” Rehman added.

The Government on July 24 virtually dismantled a panel of parliamentarians it formed in 2011 to initiate peace talks with the home-grown Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), diminishing prospects of institutionalised dialogue with militants on a pattern being followed by Afghan authorities, reported The Express Tribune. National Assembly Speaker Doctor Fehmida Mirza had constituted a parliamentary committee in October 2011 after the country’s top political and military leadership decided to hold negotiations with militant groups at an all-party security conference. “All parties’ conference recognises that there has to be a new direction and policy with a focus on peace and reconciliation. Giving peace a chance must be the guiding central principle henceforth,” said one of the 12 points which was backed by around 60 political parties, the Government and the military’s top brass, at that time. The move was so hyped that some Government leaders called it a paradigm shift in the country’s military-dominated security policy after seven years of anti-terrorism campaign in the tribal badlands. Pakistani leaders borrowed the idea of parliamentary oversight of dialogue with the militants from the model of High Peace Council formed in 2010 by President Hamid Karzai to spearhead peace process with the Afghan Taliban in Afghanistan. But in Pakistan they do not have the mechanism to negotiate, despite their claims of wanting to resolve the issue through dialogue. The formation of the parliamentary panel appeared to be mere formality as the 12-member committee has not been able to hold a single meeting so far, leaving it to the military authorities to deal with the TTP.

Waliur Rehman, known in militant circles as ‘Molvi Sahib’, was one of the founding members of the TTP in South Waziristan Agency, when it emerged in December 2007. Rehman was a former activist of Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam (JuI). Rehman, officially a deputy in the TTP, is at present serving as de-facto chief, as his leader, Hakimullah Mehsud, is in deep hiding to avoid US drone strikes. According to Afghan Taliban sources, an Afghan Taliban shura (consultative council) recently advised Mehsud to keep a low profile and avoid militant meetings.

Eleven persons were killed and 23 others injured when an explosive-laden pick-up went off in a market in Salarzai tehsil (revenue unit) of Bajaur Agency in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), reports Dawn. At least 20 shops, five houses and several vehicles were destroyed as the bomb ripped through the busy market owned by former Member of National Assembly (MNA) Shahabuddin Khan who is chief of the Salarzai Qaumi Laskhar (community militia). Bajaur Levies officials said that Lashkar’s leaders, who were in the area at the time of the incident, could be the target of the attack but they narrowly escaped. No eminent leader of the lashkar was killed or injured. The victims were common people who were purchasing items of daily use for Iftar and Sehri. Bajaur Political Agent Sayed Abdul Jabar Shah held militants responsible for the attack. However, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) spokesman, Ihsanullah Ihsan, in a call to reporters said, “The TTP has no concern with the blast and it has never attacked common people and public places.”

Unidentified assailants shot dead a high ranking Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) ‘commander’, Ashraf Marwat, at in the Shaktoi area of South Waziristan Agency, reports Daily Times. Ashraf Marwat was linked to an attack on a volleyball tournament at Shah Hassan Khel village in Lakki Marwat (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa) on January 1, 2010 that killed almost 90 persons and injured another 60. Police blamed Marwat for helping organise the deadly 2010 attack on the Shah Hassan Khel village in which a truck packed with explosives was detonated at a volleyball tournament. Police also say Marwat killed another TTP ‘commander’, Iftikhar Marwat, reportedly because of his association with Afghan Taliban. The dispute between the two men highlighted tensions within the insurgency. Iftikhar Marwat had apparently urged terrorists from his native Lakki Marwat District to focus their fight on foreign forces in Afghanistan instead of against Pakistani security forces. That angered Ashraf Marwat, who wanted to continue attacks in Pakistan.

The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) on July 26 threatened to attack Myanmar to avenge crimes against the Muslim Rohingya, unless the Government halts all relations with the Myanmar and closed its Embassy, reports Daily Times. TTP Spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan demanded the Government to suspend all relations with Myanmar. "Otherwise we will not only attack Burmese interests anywhere but will also attack the Pakistani fellows of Burma one by one," he said in a statement. In a rare statement focused on the plight of Muslims abroad, the TTP group sought to present itself as a defender of Muslim population in Myanmar, saying, "We will take revenge of your blood". The Myanmar embassy in Islamabad was not immediately reachable for comment. Recent clashes in western Myanmar between Buddhist ethnic Rakhine and Muslim Rohingya have left dozens dead and tens of thousands homeless. Decades of discrimination have left the Rohingya stateless, and they are viewed by the United Nations (UN) as one of the world's most persecuted minorities.

An abducted man, Iftikhar Afzal (36), who was abducted allegedly from Adiala Road in Rawalpindi District by Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants for a PKR 200 million ransom on June 28, 2012, was still not recovered. Shahzad Afzal, the younger brother of the victim said, “Two days after my brother was kidnapped, I received a phone call from the kidnapper. And they have been making phone calls after about every week and negotiating on their demand,” adding, “During the first telephonic contact, the caller identified himself as a member of the TTP and said Iftikhar was in their captivity. The kidnapper also asked me to arrange PKR 20 crore for the safe release of my brother. However, negotiations continued with the kidnappers and they reduced the ransom money to PKR 5 crore during the latest telephonic talk that took place on July 17, 2012.”

Pakistani officials said on July 30 that a ban on NATO trucks at the main border crossing into Afghanistan would last until the Government promised to safeguard security, reported Daily Times. Officials closed the Torkham crossing to NATO traffic on July 24, 2012, just weeks after lifting a seven-month blockade on NATO trucks going into Afghanistan. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain said that they have not received any response as yet from the Federal Government about the security plans. All Pakistan Oil Tankers Owners Association President Akram Khan Durrani said that truckers would not leave without security guarantees and compensations. The situation has changed dangerously as many political and religious groups have been against the NATO supply and the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) could strike anywhere if they would have no security, he added.

Pakistan remained a critical partner on counter-terrorism efforts, actively engaging against al Qaeda and the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), but its cooperation regarding other terrorist groups, such as Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), was mixed, Dawn reported quoting a US report released on July 31. The State Department’s counter-terrorism report for 2011 noted that the US raid in Abbottabad that killed Osama bin Laden, “sparked intense international and domestic scrutiny of Pakistan’s security establishment and strained the US-Pakistan relationship and bilateral counter-terrorism efforts”. Cooperation between the two countries, however, began to recover slightly, as evidenced by the Pakistan military’s September announcement marking the capture of senior al Qaeda leader Younis al-Mauritani in a joint US-Pakistan operation.
