Featured TTP commander Amir Nawaz killed in Afghanistan

. .
A leader of the outlawed Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) Amir Nawaz, who was suspected to be the main character behind the murder of Japanese nationals – Dr Tetsu Nakamura in Afghanistan’s Nangarhar in 2019, has been killed, Afghan and Pakistani sources said on Wednesday.

No group has claimed responsibility for the killing of Nakamura, who was killed along with five of his aid workers when they were heading to office.

Nawaz also known as Haji Dubai was also wanted in Pakistan for his role in a series of killings and kidnappings in the tribal areas, Karachi, Punjab and Balochistan.

Security officials believe he was the mastermind of the Bannu jailbreak in April 2012 by a group of militants. Some 260 Taliban militants fled from the jail during the TTP-claimed attack.

Adnan Rasheed, who was on death row after being convicted by a field general court martial for engineering attack on then military ruler General Pervez Musharraf in Dec 2003, had also escaped. Militants from North Waziristan, their stronghold until 2014, had attacked the prison in large numbers but the officials on duty offered no resistance.

Pakistani security sources also confirmed that the TTP leader has been killed during “an armed conflict” in Afghanistan. Afghan and TTP sources say Amir Nawaz was killed during an operation near capital Kabul “a couple of days ago.”



There was no official word on the incident by either side.

Amir Nawaz had been associated with breakaway Mehsood factions of the TTP and later joined the main TTP group.

Amir Nawaz is another Pakistani militant leader killed in Afghanistan. There is a long list of Pakistani militant leaders killed in Afghanistan in US strikes.

On Jan. 28, Lashkar-e-Islam chief Mangal Bagh, who was wanted to Pakistan for attacks on security forces, was killed in a bomb blast in Nangarhar province. According to Zia-ul-Haq Amarkhel, Nangarhar governor, tweeted that Mangal Bagh, was killed in an IED explosion in Achin district along with his two bodyguards.

The TTP chief Maulvi Fazalullah was killed in a US drone strike in Kunar in June 2018.

The Daesh chief for Khorasan region Hafiz Saeed Khan Orakzai was killed in a US drone attack in Nangarhar in 2016 along with several militants.

The mastermind of the Army Public School massacre, responsible for the death of 150 students and staff members, has been killed in a drone strike in Afghanistan in 2016.

Terrorists must not find even an inch to hide themselves anywhere in the world. Find their hiding holes and shove explosives in their holes. Good going who so ever has done it.

Our agencies were not involved.
RAW did this.

My God, a real clean up operation is under way in Afghanistan. Gives a clear message to those who doubted our reach and capabilities.

There is no guarantee all these guys are being handled by PK. So lets not get happy ears. Some of these could also be double agents, potentially changing their stance on PK etc., and hence being taken out by their handlers. Until we get some official notification on this, we are all speculating that this is PKs work. Perhaps a more accurate view would be that a third of these are getting killed due to rivalries, a third by Taliban, and a third by their own handlers. PK likely is operating through the Taliban where it can, but I would not prescribe a more than 33% hit rate on PK/Taliban.

Another Afghan/Indian asset flushed down the toilet.

Why do people keep calling these RAW assets? Afghans are entirely responsible for these people and yet I've never seen the government name them.

The government wants to trade through Afghanistan. They don't want to jeopardise relations. You are right. Name them. RAW is absolutely involved though.

I'm tired of seeing the govt pander to this Kabul clique. We had the opportunity to deal with a much friendlier government during the election crisis and we stuck with the guy who chose Amrullah Saleh as his VP.
