Peshawar: Pakistani security forces today killed in a fake encounter 2 Mujahideen, hailing from Peshawar in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, who had fought alongside the Taliban in Afghanistan, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) said tonight.

The TTP slammed the Pakistani forces for shamelessly planting weapons on the two deceased and deceivingly projecting before the media that they were killed in a gunfight.

The two Mujahideen Hanif and Roheed Khan were arrested by the Pakistani forces 2 months back although they had committed no crime in Pakistan, TTP spokesman Muhammad Khurasani said in a statement to News Vibes of India (NVI).

The two were brutally martyred today in a fake encounter in Dera Ghazi Khan, he added.

The two Mujahideen had fought in the ranks of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (Taliban of Afghanistan), Khurasani said.

The two were killed just because the Pakistani security agencies take action against jihad and mujahideen.

The Pakistani forces claimed before the media that the two were killed in a gunfight and kept weapons to deceive people, Khurasani said.

“We invite all the Mujahideen in Pakistan to support us for the establishment of the Islamic system and the evil end of the enemies of Islam,” the TTP spokesman said in the statement.
