The outlawed TTP has released a 5-minute long “condolence” video over the suicide attack during a Jamiat-e-Ulema Islam-F workers’ convention in Bajaur that killed 63 people, the Khorasan Diary reported on Friday.

However, there is not a single word against the banned IS-KP which claimed the Bajaur attack, it added.

The two senior and founding members of the organisation Maulana Azmatullah Mehsud and Maulana Faqir Muhammad and Shahid Omar, deputy Shadow governor for Malakand Division criticised the government’s policies for causing such “incidents”.

At least 63 were killed and 123 people injured after a suicide bomber blew himself up at the JUI-F in Khar’s gathering in Shandy Morr area on July 30.

Initial investigations indicated that the outlawed Islamic State could be behind the suicide bombing in Bajaur.

Analysts who monitor the incidents of terrorism in the region say IS-KP is probably made up of some people from the banned TTP who are supported by certain people across the border.

Journalist Iftikhar Firdous, the founder of Khorasan Diary, also called it a war of ideologies and said that the issue of IS-KP has issues with the JUI-F as when IS was forming its Khorasan chapter, the first fatwa against them was given by the leaders of JUI. IS was called a group of ‘kharjites’.
