Taliban to choose chief in five days: Wali
2009-08-24
[Geo News] Taliban council will choose their chief within five next days, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) chief Baitullah Mehsud wants so, Taliban Commander Waliur Rehman said Monday morning.

'Baitullah Mehsud has deputed the organization's affairs to me two months back,' Wali said.
Talking to a foreign news agency, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) South Waziristan Amir Waliur Rehman said, 'We have thousands of suicide attackers, who can destroy their targets anywhere,' adding Baitullah Mehsud is alive; however, he is seriously ailing. 'Baitullah Mehsud has deputed the organization's affairs to me two months back,' Wali said, adding US President Obama and his allies are Taliban's foremost enemies.

The security forces' operation in Swat had no effects on Taliban, as they are still present there who moved aside to save the people from any possible damage, Wali maintained.

Ruling out any reports regarding the conflicts in Taliban movement, he said, 'Our movement is active and effective with no rifts or difference within.'

Waliur Rehman said Taliban have mujahids on all the fronts in SWA for any possible operation there.
