UNKNOWN LOCATION: Outlawed Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) threatened on Friday that it may launch fresh attacks on government installations, SAMAA reports.

Speaking to a select group of reporters at an unknown location in tribal areas, TTP spokesman Shahidullah Shahid said that TTP may carry out fresh attacks on government installations – two days after it announced to end a fragile ceasefire with the government.

Shahid said that it is not TTP’s policy to attack public places. He downplayed reports about infighting within various TTP groups, adding the government itself is confused.

He said that around 200 TTP fighters have been arrested under the operation ‘root-out’ adding it was due to such actions; TTP decided not to extend ceasefire.

But he said that doors are not completely shut for peace talks. – SAMAA
