The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) on Friday denied any involvement in a triple suicide bombing on the Data Darbar shrine in Lahore that killed 42 people and wounded 175 others. "We are not responsible for these attacks, this is a conspiracy by foreign secret agencies, you know we do not attack public places," Azam Tariq, a spokesman for the TTP told AFP by telephone from an undisclosed location. "We condemn this brutal act. Our target is very clear and we only attack police, army and other security personnel," he added. No one has claimed responsibility for the attack in Lahore, a cultural hub considered a playground for the country's elite and home to many military and intelligence top brass. |
