The Pakistani Taliban threaten more attacks until 'sharia' is applied in Pakistan

MADRID, 18 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The terrorist group Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has threatened this Saturday with more attacks against the security forces of Pakistan, a day after an assault on a police station in Karachi (south) that left four dead and a half of the rebound in attacks since the ceasefire was declared broken in November.

The group, which has claimed responsibility for the Karachi attack, stressed that the attack "is a message to all anti-Islamic security agencies in Pakistan." "The mujahideen will continue their fight for the application of 'sharia' in the country," he said.

"The Army and the Police will be attacked in all important places until the path is paved for the application of an Islamic system in the country," he stressed, while asking the police to "stay away from the war against the slave army.

"Otherwise, the attacks against the safe places of high-ranking Police officials will continue. We want to warn security agencies to stop causing the martyrdom of innocent prisoners in fake confrontations, or the intensity of the next attacks will be greater. ", has settled in a statement.

Pakistan has denounced that TTP uses Afghan territory for its attacks and has even threatened cross-border operations, something firmly rejected from Kabul, where the Afghan Taliban - who mediated in the talks process that led to a ceasefire - have assured They work to ensure safety.

The TTP group, which differs from the Afghan Taliban in organizational matters but follows the same rigorous interpretation of Sunni Islam, brings together more than a dozen Islamist militant groups operating in Pakistan, where they have killed some 70,000 people in two decades of violence.
