The fate of 29 abducted soldiers would be decided in light of the decision taken by the jirga, the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan spokesman Maulvi Omer said on Sunday. He warned the government that if it did not stop actions against the Taliban in Hangu and did not release the arrested Taliban; Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan would launch strikes in Hangu as well as the rest of the country and would start killing the government employees in their custody. The Tehrik Jaish-e-Islami Pakistan (TJIP) Bajaur Agency has warned that those spying for the United States would be executed publicly and made an example for others.
