The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) on February 19 offered to observe a ceasefire to allow the resumption of stalled peace talks provided Security Forces stop killing and arresting them, reports Daily Times. We are ready for the ceasefire if the government assures us that bodies of our colleagues will not be found in gunny bags and they will not be killed in encounters and arrested in raids, TTP spokesman Shahidullah Shahid said. The Government has killed more than 60 TTP cadres since the start of the peace talks, in Karachi and the rest of Pakistan, under a secret operation codenamed Operation Root Out, Shahid said. The killings of soldiers in Mohmand were in response to the onslaught on TTP cadres by Security Forces during the talks between Government and TTP committees, he added.
