TTP issue fresh threat to kill Musharraf
By AFP Published: May 26, 2013
PESHAWAR: Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) on Sunday issued a fresh threat to assassinate former dictator Pervez Musharraf, who is currently facing a barrage of legal cases in police custody.
The retired general has been detained in his farmhouse in Islamabad since April 19 on charges of conspiracy to murder former premier Benazir Bhutto, sacking of judges when he imposed emergency rule in 2007, and the 2006 death of Akbar Bugti.
Before his arrival in March, TTP threatened to kill him for his alliance in the US-led war on terror and attempts to clamp down on militants, when he was in power.
TTP spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan on Sunday issued a fresh warning in a video message posted on Taliban website Umar Media, saying Soon we will punish this Satan (devil) to death for his wicked deed.
Musharraf went to the top of the Taliban hit list after ordering the army in 2007 to storm Lal Masjid in Islamabad. The operation left more than 100 people dead and opened the floodgates to attacks in Pakistan.
From Balochistan to Waziristan, Musharraf threw this country in blood and fire, he is the killer of hundreds of innocent students of Lal Masjid, Ehsan said.
A court on Wednesday refused bail to Musharraf over the detention of judges.
The ruling came two days after a court granted him bail over the murder of Benazir, who was killed in a gun and bomb attack in 2007.
Musharraf escaped three assassination attempts when in office from 1999 to 2008, a target of extremists because of his alliance in the US-led war on terror and attempts to clamp down on militants.
