Former spokesperson of the Pakistani Taliban Ehsanullah Ehsan has challenged his sacking in Taliban's Islamic court.
Ehsan was recently sacked by the central council over his alleged threats to the Afghan Taliban.
According to the Express Tribune, a Taliban leaflet was distributed in North Waziristan tribal region this week, saying that Ehsan had been removed as the TTP spokesperson by the central Shura or council for his controversial remarks that created a rift between the Pakistani and the Afghan Taliban.
The leaflet said that the decision had been taken with the consultation of the TTP chief, Hakimullah Mehsud.
According to the report, Ehsan however approached the Taliban court and rejected charges against him, claiming that he had not threatened the Afghan Taliban.
He said that the Council members had not yet appeared in the Taliban court to formally present their charges against him, the report added.
