Pakistan has reportedly sought extradition of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) chief Mullah Fazlullah from Afghanistan and elimination of militant sanctuaries in Kunar and Nooristan provinces.
The Express Tribune reports the request for the extradition of Pakistan's most wanted man was made by Mahmood Khan Achakzai on behalf of the Prime Minister in a meeting with Afghan President Hamid Karzai in Kabul on Wednesday.
The report said Pakistan's foreign office confirmed that Achakzai, accompanied by foreign secretary Aizaz Ahmed Chaudhry, visited Afghanistan as a special envoy of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, to seek Kabul's cooperation in eliminating terrorism.
Soon after Achakzai's visit to Kabul, Afghan President Karzai spoke with Sharif over the phone and discussed the anti-terror cooperation between the two neighbours.
A statement issued from Karzai's office said that the Pakistani Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif was in agreement with all parts of an Afghan that both countries should jointly fight with all terrorists, the report said.

Kabul must take notice of TTP chief’s activities
Pakistan has asked Afghanistan to take notice of anti-state activities emanating from its soil by Tehreek-i-Taleban Pakistan (TTP) chief Maulvi Fazlullah and demanded that Afghanistan should not allow its territory to be used against Pakistan and by working together both the countries can bring an end to the menace of terrorism.
At her weekly news briefing in Islamabad on Thursday, Foreign Office spokesperson Tasnim Aslam said, “prime minister and army chief are in contact with the Afghan authorities through different channels for improving border security and Afghan authorities have assured us of full support.”
Rejecting that drone attacks are being carried out in the tribal areas with Pakistan’s consent Tasnim said it is completely misleading and wrong to link the strikes to the ongoing operation in North Waziristan.
She said Islamabad has always condemned these attacks. The government has taken a number of steps to create an international public opinion against these strikes, which are in violation of global laws. — Online
