Pakistan has repeatedly presented evidence, yet the question remains unanswered: how long will the Afghan Taliban, cloaked in the rhetoric of Sharia, continue to lie. Despite multiple documented proofs, the Taliban respond not with answers but with baseless, childish accusations against Pakistan.
The latest example comes from Bajaur in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, this time with direct links to Afghanistan rather than Western countries.
In recent days, a security operation in the Kausar area of Bajaur eliminated a high-profile terrorist, Sajjad, also known as Abu Zar, an Afghan who had crossed the border to join the ranks of the proscribed TTP, fighting its illegitimate war in Pakistan.
Who was Abu Zar?
Abu Zar, son of Haji Muhammad Zahewal, was a resident of Peer Bagh, a village in Gardez, Paktia province, Afghanistan. He had served as a member of the security forces under the Taliban government. Later, he crossed the border into Pakistan and joined the TTP, where he eventually met his inevitable end.
A funeral prayer gathering for him was held yesterday in his home village of Peer Bagh. For Abu Zar and his companions killed in Bajaur, a condolence gathering was arranged at the Imam Abu Hanifa Grand Mosque in Peer Bagh, while women arriving for condolences gathered at the house of an Afghan named Haji Muhammad.
It is worth noting that Commander Sajjad Afghani and Commander Khubaib Afghani were also killed recently in Bajaur during security operations along with their associates. Earlier, another Afghan terrorist named Mullah Saddam met the same fate in Bajaur, and condolence ceremonies for him had been held not only in Afghanistan but in France as well.
According to careful estimates, nearly three hundred Afghan terrorists have been eliminated by Pakistan’s security forces this year. Three hundred bodies would form a small hill, yet the Afghan Taliban are unable to see even this hill of evidence. Their vision appears blinded by the shine of dollars flowing from Pakistan’s lifelong enemy, India.
