Mehsud rejects Mullah Omar’s appeal of stopping terror activities in Pak
PESHAWAR - In yet another incident which proves that fissures in the Taliban are getting wider, the Tehreek-e-Taliban (TTP) chief Baitullah Mehsud has rejected the calls of the Talibans supreme leader Mullah Muhammad Omar Akhund for halting terror strikes in Pakistan.
According to sources, Akhund had asked Mehsud to stop the terror acts in Pakistan and focus more on activities against the US led allied forces in Afghanistan.
Mullah Omar is our Ameer, but like Afghanistan, we are determined to continue resistance in Pakistan, Mehsud reportedly told a delegation of the Taliban.
Sources said the delegation asked Mehsud to shun his violent activities in Pakistan, which according to them is damaging image of Taliban in Pakistan, but Mehsud out rightly rejected the appeals of the 11-member delegation.
The top Taliban leaders who met Mehsud included Abu Yahya Al Laibi, Abdul Haq Turikistani, Siraj Ud Din Haqqani, and Abdul Hakeem Sharaee, The Nation reports.
In the past few days, Mehsud has been facing the ire of his former aides, as they have attacked the warlord for his decision to carry out terror strikes inside Pakistan.
Rival commander Qari Zainudin Mehsud recently blamed the TTP chief for all the terror strikes in Pakistan, and termed them unIslamic.
Another former close aid of Mehsud, Qari Turkistan charged Mehsud of being the biggest enemy of Islam.
Mehsud attacked mosques and madrassas, ordered explosions in markets and the slaughtering of religious scholars and troops, it is not Islam, Turkistan said. (ANI)
