Anti-Pakistan Taliban spokesperson rejects reports of death of Mulla Radio

Outlawed anti-Islam and anti-Pakistan Deobandi militant group Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) rejected reports that its chief Mullah Fazlulla also known as (aka) Mulla Radio was killed in airstrikes and ground raids in parts of Khyber Agency’s Tirah Valley region.

“It is a complete lie,” terrorist outfit TTP’s spokesman Mohammad Khorasani said hours after reports of Deobandi TTP chief’s death arose in the media. On March 22, at least 20 Wahhabis-allied Deobandi takfiri militants were killed and eight others injured in raids carried out in the Agency, according to sources.

Express News reported late Sunday night that the Taliban chief was also among those killed; however, there was no official confirmation.

“The reports concerning death of our chief are totally baseless and we reject all these claims,” Khorasani said in an email sent to The Express Tribune.
Khorasani added that only just three members of the (Deobandis’) Taliban were killed in the strikes. He also claimed inflicting losses on the security forces.
