Mulllah Fazlullah, chief of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), has reportedly said that the Pakistan government and the army must submit to the authority of Allah and the system laid down by Him, just as the Taliban have.
Addressing Taliban fighters in a video, Fazlullah said the government, army and secret agencies have to accept the writ of Allah, just as the Taliban have and asked the group's Taliban fidayeen (suicide bombers) to prepare to fight against the tanks and artillery of 'forces that transgress the limits set by God, the Express Tribune reported.
The video released by the group's Darra Adam Khel chapter, comes as peace talks between the government and the Taliban have been put on hold.
It is reported that while the Taliban and the Pakistani government have been secretly contacting each other, no formal talks have been initiated as of yet.
Meanwhile, Fazlullah, who is said to have been opposed to dialogue, made no mention of the peace process in the video, the report said.
