The Security Forces (SFs) advanced towards Janta on November 3 after securing areas around the Taliban stronghold of Sararogha in the South Waziristan Agency, where 21 militants and one soldier were reported dead by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), The News reported. Official sources said the troops had secured the areas around Sararogha while clashes had taken place near Makeen and Sam where the militants were offering resistance. The troops claimed killing 16 militants during clashes in Sararogha while a soldier was killed and another injured in a landmine explosion in the area. They said several improvised explosive devices (IEDs) planted by the militants were discovered and defused by the troops. The military is reported to have claimed considerable gains against the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) on all the three fronts. Officials said the troops were now advancing towards Makeen and Ladha, considered as two major strongholds of the militants. With the 21 casualties on November 3, as claimed by the Army officials, the death toll of the militants has mounted to 364 in the past 18 days. However, claims and counter-claims from the two sides could not be confirmed from independent sources mainly due to inaccessibility of the area, severance of communication lines, and displacement of people from South Waziristan and their shifting to safer places. Local sources said the SFs had captured the Janta area located between Sararogha and Ladha. However, they said the area had already been vacated by the militants. Janta is said to be a mountainous area and once a base of the Taliban because of its strategic location. They said the troops were now advancing towards Ladha, Asman Manza and Karwan Manza, the next important points after the capture of Kaniguram. The sources also said the TTP hideouts were targeted by fighter jets and with heavy artillery in Ladha, Makeen and Sam areas. Four militants’ positions were reportedly destroyed in the attack, the sources added. According to local officials, the troops are yet to reach the Ladha, Janta, Shaktoi and Barwand areas. However, they said Makeen was almost under siege by the troops, who had established strong posts on the nearby mountains to facilitate their advance on this stronghold of the militants. The ISPR statement said besides killing 16 militants and the death of an Army soldier, two suspected militants had been arrested in Sararogha. It said militants fired six rockets on security forces in Kaniguram as they were busy searching the area for IEDs, weapons and militants to secure the adjoining ridges. The military said five militants were killed during a clash in Ghanikhel near Kaniguram. On the Razmak-Makeen axis, the troops said they had secured the area from Cheena up to Mian Nurkhel. Manza Sar had also been secured and the troops were consolidating their positions, the statement added. The ISPR said the troops came under a rocket and small arms attack from the militants near Razmak, but no one was killed or injured. One soldier sustained injuries while defusing an IED at the Chashmai bridge on the same axis.

The Special Investigation Unit (SIU) of Sindh Police claimed to have arrested a most wanted militant belonging to the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), from a petrol station in the Sohrab Goth area of provincial capital Karachi on November 5, The News reported. The SIU officials claimed that the militant, identified as 32-year old Umer Khan, was on number five of the top ten most wanted list and termed his arrest a major breakthrough in the ongoing operation against militants in the country. Khan was the ‘commander’ of the Kabal-Gram area of Shangla in the Malakand Division of NWFP. During the military operation earlier in 2009, Umer Khan fled from Swat and came to Karachi and was working as a petrol pump operator situated near Sohrab Goth and through a tip-off, a special team of SIU conducted a successful raid and arrested him from the petrol pump. One TT pistol was recovered from his possession.

The Afghan Taliban ‘Commander’ Abdul Manan a.k.a. Mulla Toor Jan, has denied any link between the Afghan Taliban and Pakistani militants, saying that the Afghan Taliban were not in Pakistan but were fighting in Afghanistan against the occupied troops, The News reported. Talking to a TV channel, Abdul Manan said the Afghan Taliban was fighting against the US and NATO troops as they occupied Afghanistan through force and the Taliban would drive them out of their land. Responding to a question regarding suicide attacks in Pakistan, he said: “It is un-Islamic and wrong to target innocent people in blasts.” He also expressed his unawareness about the objectives of the Pakistani Taliban. Asked about the Taliban Shura in Quetta, capital of Balochistan, he said the Taliban had control of over 80 per cent of Afghanistan and it would not be wise for the Taliban to live in Pakistan, saying only one per cent or less Taliban militants visit Pakistan to meet their relatives. Answering another question, he rejected the influence of Al Qaeda on the Taliban, saying the Taliban wanted an Islamic system in the country according to the wishes of the people. Talking on coordination among the Taliban, he said advisers of the Taliban existed all over the country and they took decisions after consultation and their decisions had to be followed by the Taliban.

The Army on November 10 claimed killing nine more militants to raise the Taliban death tally to 492 since the launch of the Operation Rah-e-Nijat in South Waziristan Agency on October 17, The News reported. Among the nine slain militants, the Army said five were killed in the north of Ladha and four others were killed in the Tauda Cheena and Fort Knoll areas of Makeen. According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the SFs continued search and clearance operations in the Sarai Ghundaka, Kandao, Spinkai and Zariwam areas on the Jandola-Sararogha axis. The SFs have reportedly discovered and dismantled a private jail near the Bangalkhel area of Ladha, where they are conducting a search and clearance operation over the past few days. Several caves, bunkers, towers and observation posts of the Taliban were also destroyed in the same area, said the ISPR. On the Razmak-Makeen axis, the SFs recovered a huge cache of arms and ammunition and arrested one militant from the area. Political administration officials said the troops were in complete control of Makeen, the nerve centre of the TTP. They said the areas of Shakai, Kaniguram and Makeen had been cleared while a search operation was underway in Maidan, Kot Langarkhel and Bazay. The troops have also established posts on mountains in Sararogha to strengthen their positions and started a search operation on the Srarogha-Piazha Road. The troops are now reportedly advancing towards Janta, Piazha and Makeen from the Sararogha side. Sources said the SFs had also started a search operation in the Sam area of Ladha while posts had been established on the hilltops in Karwan Manza, Karam and Delay. Sources said the SFs were now controlling more than 80 per cent of the Mehsud areas in the agency as there was no or little resistance from the militants in recent days. They said the majority of militants had either fled into the neighbouring North Waziristan and Orakzai Agencies or sneaked into the adjacent districts of Tank and Dera Ismail Khan in the NWFP in the garb of fleeing population.
