Baitullah ‘angry’ at being blamed for every attack

PESHAWAR: Militant leader Baitullah Mehsud has offered to support peace in Tank district, but expressed anguish that he was being suspected for every militant attack, a member of an all-tribes jirga said on Wednesday. “Baitullah Mehsud is angry at being accused of involvement in every militant attack,” Senator Saleh Shah of the MMA told Daily Times after meeting the Taliban commander at an undisclosed location in South Waziristan. The jirga met Mehsud to seek his help in bringing normalcy to Tank city following a clash between militants and police on Monday. Shah said that Mehsud told the jirga that he would take action against the people who were bringing a “bad name for the mujahideen”. “Stop blaming me for all the bad things,” Shah quoted Mehsud as saying to the government through the jirga. staff report
