ISLAMABAD: Pakistan shared on Wednesday with Afghanistan evidence of terrorist sanctuaries being used by Jamaatul Ahrar to carry out attacks inside the country.

A faction of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), Jamaatul Ahrar claimed responsibility for a terrorist attack outside Punjab Assembly in Lahore on Tuesday which claimed the lives of 13 people.

Afghan Deputy Head of Mission Syed Abdul Nasir Yousafi was called-in to the Foreign Office and handed over the dossier.

“An aide-memoire containing details of the terrorist attacks and supporting information was shared with the Afghan deputy head of mission,” the foreign office said.

The Afghan envoy was conveyed grave concerns about the continuing terrorist attacks on its soil by the terrorist outfit, the statement said.

“Attention of the senior diplomat was also drawn to the earlier actionable intelligence shared by our authorities with the Afghan side,” it added.

Afghanistan, it said, was urged to take urgent measures to eliminate terrorists and their sanctuaries, financiers and handlers operating from its territory.

The attack by the militant group came three days after it announced it will carry out a series of attacks on government installations around the country. A spokesperson for the group warned in a statement that Monday’s bomb was “just the start”.

It underscored the challenges faced by Pakistan in its push to stamp out militancy, even as security dramatically improved in 2015 and 2016.

Lahore, the country’s cultural capital, suffered one of Pakistan’s deadliest attacks during 2016 when Jamaatul Ahrar carried out a suicide attack in a park during Easter. The attack led to a death toll of more than 70, including many children.

Not going to work. We are talking to a brick wall. We have handed over evidence before. FM Mullah is operating from his lair in Afghanistan. Plotting and scheming to kill innocent Pakistanis. Here we are handing over evidence. India and Afghanistan have made their mind. They want to destabilize Pakistan by sponsoring suicide bombings.

Only solution is to kick out Afghans and seal the border. Strike in Afghanistan and take out the financiers and trainers of terror. Otherwise, keep shedding tears. it is nothing, but the bitter truth.

This is just not going to work anymore. Afghanistan doesn't care about evidence. We need some action now:

1. Accelerate the repatriation of Afghans. Burden the Afghan government and send a clear message;
2. Seal the border as much as you can. User every single tool available to monitor and eliminate movement;
3. Carry out strikes against Afghan terror hubs that are churning out killers. Eliminate the financiers and handlers. Use every means at disposal to achieve this goal including intelligence operations.

We need to get tough and we need do it now. All gains during Zarb-e-Azb will amount to zilch if India is allowed to carry on carnage on Pak soil. These people are after our security. They are after our economy. They are after CPEC.

Useless exercise. The current Afghan leadership isn't gonna budge and do somethings about the TTP. In all probability they are in cahoots with the TTP. We might have to try a different approach.

You won't be seeing scripts anymore now. You'll only see action. Only cowards use terror tactics against innocent people.

1996. We kicked them out and brought taliban in.

 

[Taimoor Khan]

Today there is another bomb blast in Peshawar. This government is utterly f***** up. Nawaz is a "nasoor" to this nation. Handling over evidence to Afghans for what? for them to know that we already know who was the mastermind so they can protect and cover up their and Indian assets??

[New World]

Evidence? Sorry. You have only provided information, not evidence

TTP's issued own statement about claiming bomb blast is the evidence..

is that enough for you? or we have to bought back dead bomber so that he can testify in front of you?
