17 Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants, including two key ‘commanders’ were killed and 13 injured, while five of their hideouts were destroyed after jetfighters pounded their hideouts in Akhun Kot, Bilrass and Chappar areas of Manozai areas of Upper Orakzai Agency, reported Dawn. However, local spokesman for TTP Hafeez Saeed denied killings and said not a single fighter of his group was killed in the attacks. He told reporters from an undisclosed location over the telephone that jetfighters bombarded houses already vacated by the Taliban.

Magistrate Ahmed Mansoor Janjua said on March 3 that Abdul Rasheed, the main accused behind the October 8, 2007 suicide blast on Benazir Bhutto’s rally, revealed to him that the attack was planned and orchestrated by the then Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) chief Baitullah Mehsud, reports The Express Tribune. During the hearing of Benazir Bhutto murder case in a special Anti-Terrorism Court, Janjua said that he had told Rasheed that his statements could be held against him, but Rasheed replied that he is giving the statements without any pressure. The magistrate told the court that Rasheed confessed that Mehsud not only brought two suicide bombers from Waziristan but also handed him PKR 400,000 to carry out the task. The suicide bombers were taken for a survey of Liaquat Bagh a day before the rally. The map of the area was explained to them, and after spending the night with Rafaqat and Hussain – both currently under arrest – the bombers arrived at the rally venue five hours before it began, detailed Janjua. He added that both the bombers were supposed to detonate themselves, but the target was achieved after Bilal blew himself up. So Mehsud took the other bomber Ikramullah back to South Waziristan after he was informed of a successful attack.

Four militants were killed when rival outfits clashed with each other to get control over an important bunker in Dwa Thoe area of Tirah valley in Khyber Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) on March 5, reports Dawn. Sources said that Tariq Afridi group of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) attacked a bunker of Lashkar-e-Islam (LI) in Dwa Thoe area. Both the outfit traded heavy fire, which resulted in killing of four militants. LI sources in Bara claimed that they not only repulsed the offensive but also killed three of their opponents. The LI had captured the same post after expelling TTP from the Kukikhel dominated areas of Tirah valley. Both groups have been fighting with each other since October 2011 to gain full control of the area.

Militant leaders in Bajaur Agency (FATA) have reacted strongly to the removal of their chief from the post of deputy Amir (chief) of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and threatened to form their own group, reports Dawn. Four top militants loyal to Maulvi Faqir Mohammad called local reporters and said they rejected as one-sided TTP`s decision to remove their leader from the deputy leader’s post. Maulana Abdul Mutalib, Fazal Khan, Maulvi Abdullah and Liaquat Khan said the decision of TTP’s central shura (council) was untimely and would sow discord among the militants. “The decision of the shura has disappointed Bajauri Taliban,” one of them said. Their reaction came a day after TTP’s central spokesman Ihsanullah Ahsan announced that the shura had removed Faqir Mohammad from the post.

The ousted deputy chief of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), Maulvi Faqir Muhammad on March 6 said to Reuters that he still favours peace talks with the Pakistani Government. “Whenever I’ve held talks with the Government of Pakistan, I’ve held them with the permission and advice of the central leadership of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan,” Maulvi Faqir Muhammad said from an undisclosed location. “When the Taliban in Afghanistan can talk to America, then why can’t we talk to the Government of Pakistan?” he added. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Information Minister Mian Iftikhar Hussain denied any talks had been held, but said the announcement “clearly shows the differences among Taliban ranks”.

Al Qaeda’s main operational commander and the chief of the Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI), Muhammad Ilyas Kashmiri, who was reportedly killed on June 3, 2011 in a United States (US) drone attack in South Waziristan Agency of Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), was spotted in North Waziristan Agency recently, reported Daily Times on March 7 (today), referring to reliable sources. The HuJI leader reportedly visited North Waziristan this week and held sittings with Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) leader Hakimullah Mehsud. Sources said that during the visit, Kashmiri spent a night with Mehsud, as his guest. During Kashmiri’s visit to the TTP comrade in Waziristan, a renowned journalist from Islamabad was also reportedly present there. During the sittings with Mehsud, Kashmiri allegedly reviewed the future strategy in connection with jihad, his movement and the present situation in Afghanistan. However, sources said that security officials of the US and Pakistan failed to confirm the death of the HuJI commander and media reports were published in July 2011 that he was still active in the border areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan. However, it is said that the photograph believed to be of Kashmiri’s corpse, was actually that of a militant belonging to the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT).

Leader of the peace militia of the Stori Khel Tribe in Orakzai Agency, Malik Waris Khan, was attacked and killed by militants in Feroz Khail area of Orakzai Agency. The militant, according to the official, managed to escape. However the house he took refuge in was soon located and encircled by security forces however. With no way to escape, and capture imminent, the militant killed himself. “He first exploded a hand grenade and injured himself but when the security forces moved closer, he shot himself,” said the official. The spokesperson for the TTP Ehsanullah Ehsan called reporters from an unknown location and claimed responsibility for the attack on the peace lashkar leader. “He was fighting against us,” said Ehsan. Malik Waris Khan had been awarded the Tamgha-e-Imtiaz by the Government of Pakistan on the 23rd of March, 2011, recognising his efforts to combat militants and restore peace in his area.

A suicide bomber blew himself up at a funeral in the suburban Badbher area of Peshawar, the provincial capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, killing 16 persons and injuring 33 others on March 11. A Senior Police official said Advocate Khushdil Khan, Deputy Speaker of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly, appeared to be the target of the attack. The blast took place immediately after he had left the place. Darra Adamkhel chapter of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) claimed responsibility for attack. TTP spokesman Mohammad Afridi said the politician was the target because he had set up a militia to battle against the TTP. “These militias are the front lines for the Pakistan army,” the spokesman added.
