Crime Investigation Department (CID) of Sindh Police claimed to have arrested a suspected Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militant, Khan Afsar Mohmand alias Jawad, from Manghopir area of Karachi, reports Express Tribune. He is involved in numerous target killings, kidnapping for ransom and extortion cases. A TT pistol and ammunition was allegedly seized from him and a hit list containing the names of senior leaders of Political parties and Police officers was also found on him. Afsar is believed to have joined the TTP in Mohmand Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) where he conducted militant operations against the Armed Forces. He is said to be closely linked with TTP’s Qari Shakeel group based in the northern areas and is charged of killing seven people in 2010 and one person named Farooq Ahmed in January 2011. Moreover, he carried out most of the murders within the jurisdiction of Pirabad, Mominabad and Site A. It was reported that there are more than a dozen active members of Afsar’s TTP cell in Karachi, who remain at large. The preliminary interrogation revealed that the suspect along with other TTP members was planning a huge suicide bombing mission in Karachi.

State Department official Shari Villarosa said that al Qaeda still has the capacity to stage international attacks from Pakistan despite US forces’ killing of the terrorist network’s ‘leader’ Osama bin Laden, reports Daily Times. “Although the al Qaeda core is clearly weaker, it retains the capability to conduct regional and transnational attacks,” from Pakistan, Villarosa said in written testimony to the House Committee on Homeland Security. Villarosa, the deputy counterterrorism coordinator in charge of regional affairs, pointed to the al Qaeda linkages of the Pakistan-based terrorist groups Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and the Haqqani Network.

Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) claimed responsibility for the cross-border attack on the Shaltalo security post. Ehsanullah Ahsan, ‘spokesman’ for the TTP, told Reuters by telephone from an undisclosed location that “Up to 40 to 50 of our fighters took part in the operation. None of our fighters were killed.” ‘Deputy leader’ TTP Fakir Mohammed said the group with close ties to al Qaeda had changed strategy and would now focus on large-scale attacks only on State targets like the one in Dir. “Our new strategy of launching big attacks on military installations was aimed at causing demoralisation in the ranks of the security forces and tiring of the Government”. “We also want to limit civilian casualties. Our ultimate objective is to force the Government to end its alliance with the United States,” Mohammad added.

Ahmedzai Wazir tribes won local TTP ‘commanders’ support during a Jirga (tribal council) to keep the 2007 ‘peace deal’ going in South Waziristan after a US drone strike killed dreaded terrorist leader Ilyas Kashmiri on June 3, Ahmedzai Wazir tribe elders said. “The TTP ‘commanders’ understood Pakistan could do little to stop these drone attacks and assured they will not break the 2007 peace deal the TTP reached with the Ahmedzai Wazir tribes in reaction to the killing of senior militant leader Kashmiri,” a tribal elder told Daily Times by phone from Wana, after returning from the jirga. “We have been invited by the TTP ‘commanders’ to discuss the situation in the wake of Kashmiri’s killing and they (TTP ‘commanders’) admitted they have no hard feelings against Pakistan after Kashmiri’s killing,” the elder said wishing not to be named for personal security. However, TTP leader Mullah Nazir did not attend the jirga.

The South Punjab chapter of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) threatens the CD businessmen of Imperial Market in Raza Bazaar in Rawalpindi to shut down movie and CD shops or face the consequences, reports The Express Tribune.

However, the name of the writer was not given. “We have noticed that your market has become a den of immoral and un-Islamic activities. You sell pornographic movies and CDs containing immoral content. Therefore, we warn you to stop your immoral activities now or else you will be responsible for the grave consequences,” stated the letter, adding that this was the final warning. The letter also urged traders to, “Help (TTP-Punjab) in eliminating immorality from society.”

Pakistani Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) have been put on alert in the Federal capital Islamabad and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province to prevent possible suicide attacks to avenge the killing of Ilyas Kashmiri, reports Indian Express. The National Crisis Management Cell (NCMC) of the Interior Ministry after receiving an intelligence report on possible attacks reported that the terrorists are plans to launch motorcycle-riding suicide bombers against targets. The LEAs were informed that five to nine Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) operatives have been sent to Islamabad and Rawalpindi to strike targets. Reportedly, a TTP operative named Ihsan alias Chhota Ustad has prepared sketches of the Artillery Centre and Pakistan Ordnance Factory at Sanjwal, as well as routes used by factory workers, for an attack by a sleeper TTP cell at Tarnol near Islamabad. The TTP Wali Mohammad group, led by Waliur Rehman, the deputy commander of the TTP based in North Waziristan Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), handles the cell in Tarnol, and is alleged to be behind a string of abductions for ransom and a recent attack on the Artillery Centre in Attock District of Punjab.

A new academic study from Princeton, Georgetown and the University of Pennsylvania in the US revealed that poverty in Pakistan does not lead to terrorism, The Express Tribune reported on June 9. The study is based on surveys carried out by four academics that conducted extensive field research in Pakistan by interviewing 6,000 people of varying income groups and geography. The report states that Pakistanis, in general, do not like militant groups such as the al Qaeda and the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) or Afghan Taliban. It also maintains that poor Pakistanis dislike militant outfits more than the middle classes. The study suggests people who hate militants the most are the urban poor because they’re the ones who are affected by terror attacks the most.

Maulvi Nazir faction of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) vows to escalate anti-US fight in Afghanistan in response to intensified drone missile strikes on its territory. Maulvi Younus, one of Nazir’s senior ‘commanders’ said that “Because the United States is launching these strikes we will send more fighters to Afghanistan and step up our operations against US forces”. “We have no other option. We have no weapons which shoot them (drone aircraft) down so we will fight the United States in Afghanistan.” “We have lots of Mujahideen (holy warriors). It is not a problem. If drone strikes continue we believe many tribesmen will join us because they (drone strikes) are killing ordinary people,” said Qari Yousaf, a close aide to Nazir. “Our shura (council) will decide on the appropriate time to send more fighters (to Afghanistan) and how many will go.”

Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) agreed to back Zawahri as al Qaeda’s new leader and vowed to carry out attacks against Western targets. TTP spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan described Zawahri as a ‘capable person’ and said the former Egyptian doctor would inspire the group to take on the West. “We have been carrying out our activities, which will gather more momentum. We will get revenge for the oppression by the West,” said Ehsanullah over the phone from an undisclosed location. Omar Khalid Khorasani, a senior TTP commander, recently said a few days back that Zawahri would be the group’s ‘chief and supreme leader’.

Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) claimed that they had used husband wife duo to attack the Kolachi Police Station in Dera Ismail Khan District on June 25. TTP spokesman Ahsanullah Ahsan said that “This shows how much we hate Pakistani security institutions’’. Ahsan claimed it was the first time the militant group had used a woman suicide bomber. However, Pakistani officials said a woman suicide bomber wearing a burqa attacked a World Food Programme food distribution centre at Khar in Bajaur Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on December 25, 2010, killing 45 people. The TTP claimed responsibility for that attack in city of Khar but never said it was by a woman bomber. Still, that was believed to be the first attack by a woman.

A senior Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) ‘commander’, Shakir, who helped train and deploy suicide bombers was shot dead by unidentified assailants at the Qutab Khel area on Bannu- Miranshah road near Miranshah, the headquarter of North Waziristan Agency, in Federally Administered Tribal Agency at around 4:00 pm on June 28, reports The Express Tribune. Sources said that Shakir, a resident of South Waziristan, was riding a motorcycle when unidentified assailants in a vehicle with tinted windows sprayed bullets on him. Shakir was a close aide of TTP’s chief trainer of suicide bombers Qari Hussain and had also served as his spokesperson for some time. Fidayeen-e-Islam, a branch within the TTP, was responsible for training of suicide bombers and was headed by Qari Hussain, famously known as 'Ustad-e-Fedayeen'. According to the Associated Press, Shakir once claimed to a local newspaper that his group had trained more than 1,000 suicide bombers at camps in North Waziristan. Shakir’s name hit headlines last month for issuing threats to Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry. He had reportedly threatened the CJP with ‘dire consequences’ if he accepted the conviction of the TTP activists who were awarded death sentence by the Lahore High Court for attacking former President Pervez Musharraf.

They abided by the directions of terrorist Khilji of Ameer-e-Taliban, it added. The JIT findings revealed that the actual name of Umarul-Bashar is Abid Malik and he lived in Nai Abadi in Faisalabad District. Abu Saeed’s actual name is Qari Ziaur-Rehman, also from Faisalabad District. According to the findings of the report, both terrorists fled to Dubai, from Karachi via Sri Lanka. The JIT also discovered that the actual name of Shabbir Haidri is Nazar Muhammad, a resident of Narowal District, and had been temporarily residing in Akhtar Colony in Karachi.

The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) had been trying to lure back senior ‘commander’, Fazal Saeed Haqqani, because he controls strategic routes into Afghanistan and Pakistan and can block off terrorists’ escape paths, his supporters said. TTP chief Hakimullah Mehsud has sought help from Haqqani for a truce with Saeed, who quit the group to protest against what he called “brutal” attacks on civilians, militant sources said. “A six-member delegation of Afghan commanders is meeting commander Saeed at the request of Hakimullah Mehsud to ask him to rejoin the group,” a militant source close to Saeed told a group of reporters. Saeed’s faction controls important roads used by both Pakistani and Afghan militants based in North Waziristan’s tribal region for attacks in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Saeed, who quit TTP on June 28, has now formed a new group called the Tehreek-e-Taliban Islami (TTI), comprising some 500 fighters and is said to have close ties to Sirajuddin Haqqani, leader of Haqqani Network.
