Mullah Fazlullah directs Taliban to target PML-N leadership

PESHAWAR: Outlawed Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) chief Mullah Fazlullah in a video message threatened to target the government leaders and senior members of the ruling political party Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N).

Outraged over national consensus against terrorism especially the militant groups in the country, absconding TTP chief announced to target PML-N leadership as its next target, local media reported on Friday.

Fazlullah said that their previous enemy was the Awami National Party but now the PML-N was new target. He directed his followers to hit PML-N leaders hard, so they will either come to the right path or will be sent to hell.

The video message was apparently recorded somewhere in Afghanistan, declaring that their next target would be PML-N leaders.

PML-N government has not responded to the threatening message so far.

Fazlullah accused the media of not covering ‘killing of innocent people during the military operations in FATA’ as the video message also showed the aftermath of some of the air strikes in Khyber Agency but it was not possible to independently verify the authenticity of the footage, Dawn News reported.

It is noteworthy to mention here that about 800 leaders and workers of the Awami National Party were killed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa by Pakistan Taliban insurgents in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and other parts of the country during the past few years including a suicide attack on ANP chief Asfandyar Wali Khan in October 2008.

The outlawed militant chief is reportedly hiding somewhere in Kunar province of Afghanistan.
