Pakistan announces Rs 420m on 19 TTP leaders, none on FBI's most wanted list - Naveed Yaseen - 11-03-2009 06:38 AM
PESHAWAR: The government on Monday announced a reward of Rs 420 million in total for information leading to the apprehension of 19 key leaders of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). The top three TTP leaders, Hakeemullah Mehsud, Qari Hussain and Waliur Rehman, carry the highest reward of Rs 50 million each. The rest of the TTP commanders had rewards of Rs 20 million and Rs 10 million. In its advertisement, the government appealed to the people to help apprehend these terrorists by providing information about their location. The 19 TTP leaders were charged in the advertisement with “pushing innocent Muslims into the valley of death” by carrying out bomb and suicide attacks, which had killed thousands of civilians in the last three years. “People who can provide information about these terrorists should contact the local administration in their areas. A bounty of Rs 20 million each was offered for information leading to the capture of TTP central spokesman Azam Tariq alias Raees Khan Mehsud, Maulvi Azmatullah Mehsud and Mufti Noor Wali Mehsud, while Rs 10 million each was offered for Asmatullah Bhittani alias Shaheen and Anwar Gandapur. The ad said the wanted men were “defaming the Mehsud tribes, Pakistan and Muslims all over the world”. None of the terrorist leaders mentioned in the ad are in the US Federal Bureau of Investigation’s most wanted list. However, the US agency had offered a bounty of $50 million for former TTP chief Baitullah Mehsud. iqbal khattak
