Pakistan

The Pakistani government reopened the file on Faqir Mohammed’s Tehreek Nifaz Shariah-e-Mohammadi (TNSM), the “Pakistani Taliban.” Nine members of the TNSM were freed from prison in late October. Pakistan has arrested 233 Taliban in Quetta over the past 3 days, while the signing of the Women’s Protection Bill is splitting the Taliban supporting MMA from their allies in parliament
