DERA ISMAIL KHAN- MIRANSHAH: Group’s spokesman said on Tuesday that Mullah Fazlullah, the new head of the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), returned to Pakistan’s tribal areas, after spending several years in Afghanistan.
According to information; Tehreek-i-Taliban spokesman Shahidullah Shahid said Fazlullah was now “commanding the Taliban movement at an unknown location in the tribal areas”. Fazlullah was selected TTP leader one week after his predecessor, Hakimullah Mehsud, was killed by US drone attack last month.
By the report; two intelligence sources confirmed that Fazlullah had crossed the mountains into Pakistan a day earlier. “We have information that Fazlullah has entered the Pakistani tribal area along with 15 or 20 guards,” said one source. TTP sources confirmed he had reached the tribal areas.
Before that Asmatullah Shaheen Bhittani, head of the supreme council (shura), had been appointed as TTP temporary functional head in Fazlullah’s absence.
