TTP terms Pakistan’s constitution un-Islamic

NORTH WAZIRISTAN-

Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) spokesperson Shahidullah Shahid addressed a press conference on Friday from an unknown place in North Waziristan.

Shahid said the government has started the war when they should have initiated a ceasefire.

TTP spokesman further said Quran and Hadith is complete constitution, government wants us to accept constitution through peace talks.

He stressed not a single clause in Pakistan constitution Islamic, all our acts are in ‘self defense.’

Shahid also offered to stop every kind of militant activities if security of their arrested companions was guaranteed by government.

We have been fighting in defence for ten years, the spokesperson said during a press conference, adding that the government should stop this root-out operation now.

He said that the Taliban still wish to engage in the peace dialogue to solve the country’s problems.

“We were ready to talk before and are ready now”, he stated.

The Taliban’s statements come after the government decided to pull the plug on the peace talks with the Taliban as the prime minister and the military leadership decided that “proceeding with the peace talks amid the bombings and slaughter of soldiers would be injustice to terror victims.”

At least 40 suspected insurgents were killed and several others injured as military jets and gunships bombed their hideouts in the North Waziristan and Khyber agencies, military sources said on February 20.
