ISLAMABAD: Top Fitna-al-Hindustan terrorist Gul Rehman, who masterminded the Jaffar Express attack, has been killed in Afghanistan, according to security sources on Saturday.
Gul Rehman, aka Ustad Mureed — the senior commander of BLA’s Majeed Brigade, was killed in Afghanistan’s Helmand province, the sources added.
According to Indian media reports, Gul Rehman, who was a mastermind of the deadly Jaffar attack in Quetta in March this year, was killed on September 17.
The killed terrorist was also involved in attacks on innocent citizens, personnel of security agencies, Chinese nationals and other institutions, the sources further said.
“The terrorist linked to Fitna al-Hindustan also targeted different projects of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).”
A surge in terrorist activities has been witnessed in recent days by Fitna al-Khawarij terrorists in Pakistan, who are sheltering on Afghan soil and are funded and sponsored by India’s RAW — the Research and Analysis Wing.
Recently, Pakistan had asked the Afghan Taliban government to cut ties with the proscribed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and meet its commitment to eliminate the terror group from Afghan soil, cautioning that failure to act would be treated as “hostile” activity.
Islamabad conveyed its message through the Afghan interim ambassador in Pakistan, who was summoned to the Foreign Office the other day. The envoy was told in clear terms that Afghanistan’s Taliban regime must ensure its soil is not used for terrorist activities.
