The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) Mohmand Agency chapter on July 3 ordered women in the agency to observe purdah (veil) and announced a penalty for the male relatives of women in breach of the order. The TTP spokesman Asad told reporters by telephone from an undisclosed location that the orders had been issued by the TTP Mohmand Agency commander Omar Khalid. The TTP also claimed responsibility for the abduction of three locals – Meherban, Momin and Mumtaz – from the Qilagai area of Lakro tehsil in the agency. Asad said that they had taken action against the three locals as they had detained another person. He said they would be dealt with according to Islamic laws. Nobody has however claimed responsibility for the abduction of two other persons Akbar Shah and Nasir Khan who were kidnapped by unidentified men from the Ghazi Baig area.

The Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan has established Sharia courts in the Bajaur Agency of the FATA and a large number of people are using them to get disputes resolved, instead of waiting for action by the tribal administration, Dawn reported. The courts have been functioning in the Sewai area, about 20kms northwest of the agency headquarters of Khar, for a couple of weeks. About two dozen ulema (religious scholars) have been designated as ‘Qazis’. "We have set up the courts in accordance with people’s wishes," said Taliban spokesman Maulvi Umar, adding that people were fed up with the previous legal system. He said that the Qaziswere "competent scholars well versed in Islamic jurisprudence". Umar claimed that people were approaching these courts voluntarily to get their long-standing disputes settled and the Taliban had not forced any litigant to go to the courts.

The Tehrik-i-Taliban (TTP) threatened on July 8 to carry out suicide attacks in major cities of the country, The News reported. The threat from the militants came after a US unidentified aerial vehicle (UAV) hit yet another town of Bajaur Agency on July 8. “This latest US attack in Khar (Bajaur Agency) by US Predator proved that Pakistan is continuously supporting the US air strikes on its territory. We will avenge the killing of our innocent people by the Pakistani security forces and will launch suicide attacks in important cities of the country,” Maulvi Omar, a TTP spokesman, warned. He said a woman sustained injures and two cattle were killed when a US UAV reportedly fired “Hellfire” missile on a house owned by one local tribesman Subhan Khan in Khar, headquarters of the Bajaur Agency. Omar said they had already suspended the peace talks with the Government after the latter failed to stop action against the Taliban in various parts of the FATA and the settled districts of the NWFP. He said the Government, on the one hand, had been giving an impression to the people that it wanted to restore peace in the country through negotiations and peace agreements with the militants but on the other it was still supporting the American forces in Afghanistan to continue attacks in the tribal areas. “We know very well that Pakistani officials have been providing information to the US forces on the whereabouts of our important people and our centres in the tribal areas. If the US troops target us, we will target the Pakistani soldiers and hit their important installations in Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, etc,” said Omar. He added that though the TTP did not claim responsibility for the recent suicide attack in Islamabad, but it was carried out by their like-minded people who were still angry at the military operation against the Lal Masjid and the Jamia Hafsa in which, according to him, hundreds of students were ruthlessly killed. About the Karachi bomb blasts, the TTP spokesman said the attacks were carried out by the Government only to malign the militants and Pakhtuns living in Karachi.

He said that Mohammad Ziad had been appointed the chief Qazi and other Qazis would be named later. He stated that the courts had been established in Pandialai, Khwezai, Lakaro and Dawezai. Taliban have established similar courts in the adjacent Bajaur Agency.

Despite a cease-fire brokered by two senior Afghan Taliban commanders on July 17, fighting between two rival militant groups continued on July 18 in which more than 50 militants were killed and dozens injured in the Mohmand Agency of FATA, The News reported. Two rival militant groups – the BaitullahMehsud-led Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and Commander Shah Khalid-led militants which is considered as pro-government — have been fighting for the past three days for the control of the Mohmand Agency. The two groups were running separate training centres and had set up checkpoints on roadsides. After two days of fighting, a two-member jirga (council) comprising two senior Afghan Taliban commanders — Ustad Mohammad Yasir and Maulvi Sadre Azam — mediated between them and brokered a truce on July 17-night. However, according to sources close to the militants, fighting between the well-armed militants of the two groups started again on July 18-morning when militants associated with Shah Khalid reportedly attacked one of Commander Omar Khalid’s senior commanders, Qari Shakil when he entered Khwezo, a town considered to be a stronghold of the Shah Khalid group. Qari Shakil, who hails from Peshawar’s Michni town, was injured in the attack while his vehicle was destroyed. Consequently, heavy fighting broke out between the two sides in which sophisticated weapons were used. Tribal and militant sources said that both the sides suffered heavy losses and so far 50 people, majority of them from Shah Khalid’s group, were confirmed dead and dozens injured.

The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) Mohmand Agency commander Omar Khalid said on July 21 that he has ‘arrested’ 80 activists of the Shah Sahib group, along with two intelligence personnel. Speaking to reporters from an undisclosed location, he said that the Taliban would reveal the identities of the intelligence personnel to the media after they had completed their investigation. He said that the Mohmand Agency Taliban had suspended their peace talks with the Government, adding that they would cease their attacks on officials when the Government stopped arresting their people at check-posts.

The Taliban in the Bajaur Agency of the FATA has split into two factions after infighting between two militant organisations in the Mohmand Agency led to the killing of eight members of one group on July 18, Daily Times reported. Pro-Baitullah Mehsud Taliban leader Umer Khalid killed eight members from the Shah Sahib militant group, including its chief and deputy chief, on July 18. "We, four commanders, are resigning from the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) over the killing of mujahideen in Mohmand Agency," Salar Masood, a spokesman for the four commanders, told Daily Times on July 28. "We will form our own group – Tehreek-e-Taliban Al Jihad – to continue jihad against the United States," Masood said on the phone from an undisclosed location in Bajaur. Maulvi Munir, Dr Abdul Wahab and Maulvi Abdul Hameed are the three other commanders who left the TTP. "Innocent mujahideen were killed in Mohmand. This is against shariah. Mujahideen do not kill innocent people," Masood said. He charged the Baitullah Mehsud-led TTP with "deviating" from the real cause of fighting the Americans inside Afghanistan. "We took up the matter with Baitullah Mehsud but he did not take our concern seriously," he claimed.

Senior leaders of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in Bajaur Agency on July 29 denied any differences in the Taliban ranks, and said they had no disagreement with TTP chief Baitullah Mehsud and Maulana Faqeer Muhammad. Addressing a press conference, the four senior TTP leaders in Bajaur Agency –Abdul Wahab, Maulvi Abdul Hameed, Commander Hamza and Maulvi Muhammad Munir – said they had no differences with the TTP chief or other leaders and strongly condemned media reports about differences between them. On July 28, media had reported resignations of the four Taliban leaders and differences in the Taliban ranks in Bajaur over infighting between two militant organisations in the adjacent Mohmand Agency, which had killed eight members of one group. "We are part of the TTP. We neither have differences with the TTP nor resigned from it," the leaders said, adding that they had full confidence in the leadership of Mehsud and Faqir Muhammad. The TTP leaders claimed that they would continue ‘jihad’ against the US and the policies of President Musharraf and will take revenge for killing of tribesmen in US attacks.
