New Taliban Outfit Surfaces In Southern Punjab

According to a report in the Urdu-language newspaper Roznama Ausaf, Taliban
have reached the Muzaffargarh district in the Pakistani province of Punjab.
The Punjab province is adjacent southeast to the North West Frontier
Province where the authority of the Pakistani government is being challenged
by the Taliban.

According to the report, a hitherto unknown organization called
Tehreek-e-Islami Taliban Muzaffargarh has distributed pamphlets in the
Muzaffargarh district in southern Punjab, warning of acid attacks on women
who are not suitably dressed.

According to the report, District Police Officer Shahzad Sultan confirmed
that some people have received letters, informing them that obscenity and
nakedness will stop in the region. The Taliban have also asked the owners of
internet cafes, cable TV networks and music centers to close their shops
within 15 days.

According to the report, the local police are trying to find out if this is
an external intervention in the district or if it's a newly established
local organization. In the past, militant fighters from the Punjab province
have joined the Taliban in tribal districts but this is the first report of
a Taliban group becoming active locally.
