In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the
Most Merciful.
The Pakistani newspaper ‘The Express Tribune’, citing unknown sources and
proofs, published a false report on Sunday which claimed that Amir ul Mumineen
(Mullah Muhammad Umar Mujahid) H.A. has given guidance to the Pakistani Taliban
and asked them to start talks with the government and turn their full attention
to Afghanistan. This report was all out used as evidence by some western backed
news agencies as evidence to spread their propaganda. After our extensive
investigations, we found that this report has no truth to it. In accordance with
the policy of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, we do not interfere in the
internal affairs of other countries and neither has such guidance been given to
anyone.
We strongly reject such claims and can confidently say that the esteemed Amir ul
Mimineen has not sent a letter and neither has he seen face to face with anyone
regarding this matter. It is hoped that news agencies will not publish
unconfirmed news and reports which are not backed by any credible sources. They
should prove that they are honestly working for the benefit of their countries,
are observing all journalistic ethics and are not bias towards any side.
