TTP chief on the run: US designates Fazlullah as global terrorist
By News Desk
Published: January 14, 2015

The United States has put Maulana Fazlullah, the fugitive chief of the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), on its list of global terrorists.

Maulana Fazlullah, who is believed to be hiding in northeastern Afghanistan, had claimed responsibility for the methodical killing of 150 people – 132 of them schoolchildren – at the Army Public School in Peshawar on December 16.

“The Department of State has designated Maulana Fazlullah, also known as Mullah Fazlullah, as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist under Executive Order (E.O.) 13224, which targets terrorists and those providing support to terrorists or acts of terrorism,” a spokesperson said in a media statement – available on the State Department website.

“The consequences of these designations include a prohibition against US persons engaging in transactions with Fazlullah, and the freezing of all property and interests of Fazlullah that are in the United States, or come within the United States or the possession or control of US persons,” it adds.

The State Department designated the TTP as a Foreign Terrorist Organisation and a Specially Designated Global Terrorist on September 1, 2010. The TTP was also listed at the United Nations 1267/1989 Al Qaeda Sanctions Committee on July 29, 2011.

Maulana Fazlullah was elected TTP chief in November 2013, following the death of his predecessor Hakimullah Mehsud. Prior to that, he had led a bloody campaign for the enforcement of his own interpretation of Sharia law in Swat until he and his loyalists were routed in a military operation in 2009.

Apart from the Peshawar school massacre, Fazlullah also claimed he was behind the killing ofMajor-General Sanaullah Niazi in September 2013, as well as ordering the shooting of schoolgirl and activist Malala Yousafzai in 2012. Fazlullah was responsible for the beheading of 17 Pakistani paramilitary soldiers after an attack in June 2012 and also ordered the targeted killings of elders who led peace committees against the Taliban.

US Adds Head of Pakistani Taliban to Official Terrorism List

The United States has added to its official terrorism list the leader of the Pakistani Taliban, which claimed credit for last month's assault on a Pakistani school that killed 134 children and 16 staff members.

The State Department on Tuesday named Maulana Fazlullah, also known as Mullah Fazlullah, a "specially designated global terrorist," a label meant to target "terrorists and those providing support to terrorists or acts of terrorism."

The designation makes it a crime for U.S. citizens to engage in transactions with Fazlullah. It also allows the U.S. government to seize any of his property or interests that are in the United States, including those under the control of U.S. citizens.

The United States designated the Pakistani Taliban a terrorist group in 2010.

The State Department said that before becoming the leader of the Pakistani Taliban, Fazlullah claimed to be behind the killing of Pakistani Army General Sanaullah Niazi in 2013, and that he ordered the 2012 assassination attempt on Pakistani schoolgirl and activist Malala Yousafzai, who last year won the Nobel Peace Prize.

The State Department said Fazlullah also was responsible for the beheading of 17 Pakistani soldiers after an attack in 2012.
