Peshawar (Pakistan), Nov 14 (NVI) A day after Pakistan Army claimed to have killed 8 “terrorists” of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in North Waziristan in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, the Islamist outfit today said the “occupying and oppressive” military has killed innocent people and labelled them as ‘Mujahideen’.

The TTP condemned this act of the Pakistan Army and vowed to give a befitting response to it.

“In recent days, the Pakistani Army has repeated its previous history and martyred innocent people, including women and children, at two places in North Waziristan in drone attacks and has unsuccessfully tried to label them as ‘Mujahideen’,” said the TTP in a statement.

“The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan strongly condemns these attacks and invites the people of Pakistan, especially the tribal people, to rise up against these atrocities – to free their captives from this occupying and oppressive army,” said the statement issued by its spokesman Muhammad Khorasani.

“The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan will give a befitting response to these attacks to the army,” the outfit said.
