US assures support to arrest, kill Fazlullah, Senate committee told
2015-01-27
[DAWN] Defence officials said Monday that the United States has assured Pakistain that Tehrik-e-Taliban (TTP) chief Mullah Fazlullah
...son-in-law of holy man Sufi Mohammad. Known as Mullah FM, Fazlullah had the habit of grabbing his FM mike when the mood struck him and bellowing forth sermons. Sufi suckered the Pak govt into imposing Shariah on the Swat Valley and then stepped aside whilst Fazlullah and his Talibs imposed a reign of terror on the populace like they hadn't seen before, at least not for a thousand years or so. For some reason the Pak intel services were never able to locate his transmitter, much less bomb it. After ruling the place like a conquered province for a year or so, Fazlullah's Talibs began gobbling up more territory as they pushed toward Islamabad, at which point as a matter of self-preservation the Mighty Pak Army threw them out and chased them into Afghanistan...

or killed in Afghanistan, adding that in case of an arrest he would be subsequently handed over to Pakistain.

Briefing a Senate Defence Committee in Islamabad, defence officials said that during his long visit to the US, Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Gen Raheel Sharif had also presented vital evidence of Indian involvement in subversive activities in Pakistain by using Afghan soil to top US intelligence and defence officials.

Defence officials said US would also give Pakistain 1 billion USD this year under the Coalition Support Fund (CSF).
