Pakistan announces 1-month ceasefire with Pakistani Taliban
|
[AlAhram] Pak authorities Monday announced a month-long cease-fire with a key bully boy group behind numerous attacks on security forces and civilians over the last 14 years.
Government front man Fawad Chaudhry said on Twitter that the Taliban
...Arabic for students ...
government in Afghanistan helped facilitate the cease-fire between the government of Prime Minister Imran Khan
 ...aka The Great Khan , who ain't the brightest knife in the national drawer...
and the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain.
In a statement, TTP spokesperson Mohammad Khurasani confirmed the cease-fire beginning Nov. 9 will remain in place until Dec. 9, during which both sides will form a committee to continue talks. He said both sides will adhere to the cease-fire.
The agreement was reached amid ongoing peace talks between the government and the TTP that began last month. Chaudry said the truce could be extended if talks continue to make progress.
Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain is an umbrella group and is a separate organization from Afghanistan's Taliban, who seized power in August.
The TTP has been emboldened by the return to power of the Taliban in Afghanistan. Chaudhry provided no details about the ongoing talks, during which he said both sides agreed on the cease-fire.
Authorities had earlier said that peace talks were taking place with TTP leaders in Afghanistan, where they have been hiding for the past several years.
The TTP was formed by Pak hard boyz in 2007 and since then thousands of people have been killed in scores of attacks claimed by the group in the past 14 years.
Chaudhry said elders from the former tribal regions were being kept abreast of the talks with the bully boy group.
About a million people were displaced when Pakistain launched operations in the northwest in 2013 to clear out TTP fighters. They returned to their homes after 2017 when Pakistain claimed victory against the bully boys.

As far as is known, Bilawal has no particular talents other than being pretty and being able to memorize political slogans, but he had the good luck to be born into the right family and he hasn't been assassinated yet...
, the leader of the opposition Pakistain People's Party, denounced the prime minister for not informing Parliament about the talks with TTP.
He noted the group was behind a 2014 attack on an army-run school in the northwestern city of Beautiful Downtown Peshawar

that killed 154 people, mostly schoolchildren. Zardari said the party believes such an important matter should have been debated in Parliament.
Some Paks criticized the government for holding talks with Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain, which has stepped up attacks on security forces in recent years, primarily in the northwest.
Before the Taliban came into power in Afghanistan, Islamabad and Kabul often blamed each other for sheltering bully boys. Pakistain says it has completed 90% of a fence being constructed along the border with Afghanistan to prevent cross-border bully boy attacks.
