ISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah Thursday said that the involvement of TTP militants in terror activities inside Pakistan should be a matter of concern for the Afghan Taliban and it is dangerous for regional peace.

The federal minister was speaking to the media in the federal capital after attending a meeting to review the overall security situation in the country following a suicide attack in Quetta.

Rana Sanaullah said that the rise in terror activities is alarming but the situation is not out of control. He asked the provincial governments of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan to address it before the federal government takes the matter in its hands. 

“TTP is enjoying all sorts of facilities in Afghanistan,” the minister said, a day after the banned outfit claimed the Quetta attack in which a policeman, a woman, and two children were killed, while 26 people, including 23 cops and two children, were injured.

The interior minister said Pakistan has been extending every possible assistance for peace in Afghanistan.

“KP CM was not allowed to attend meetings chaired by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif related to law and order,” the minister said and told the chief minister that certain things are above politics because the state is more important.
