Pakistani Taliban reject peace talks with govt
[Dawn] The Pak Taliban has ruled out any possibility of peace negotiations with the Pak government, a front man for the banned Death Eater group said Monday, vowing to continue fighting until the ouster of the country's 'secular rulers'.

Reacting to a statement by Federal Interior Minister issued Sunday, a front man for the banned Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP) Ehsanullah Ehsan rejected any prospects of peace talks with the government, accusing the interior minister Malik of being "a foreign agent not worthy of granting forgiveness to the Taliban".

The TTP front man further said that the organization would continue their fighting until "the ouster of secular rulers imposed by foreign forces to rule an Islamic country", adding that the TTP was striving for the creation of "an independent state governed by Islamic Sharia law, upon which the foundations of Pakistain were laid".

Bomb targets police in Beautiful Downtown Peshawar
...capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (formerly known as the North-West Frontier Province), administrative and economic hub for the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. Peshawar is situated near the eastern end of the Khyber Pass, convenient to the Pak-Afghan border. Peshawar has evolved into one of Pakistan's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire.
In another incident, a bomb went kaboom! near a security checkpost at Achini Cross in Peshawar's suburban area of Sarband.

The blast targeting a police vehicle was carried out using a remote-controlled improvised bomb (IED), security sources confirmed.

Three security personnel suffered minor injuries whereas a police mobile sustained partial damages in the attack.

Security personnel cordoned off the area as investigations in the attack went underway.
