Afghanistan\u2019s Taliban says it has arrested 200 suspected militants for staging deadly cross-border attacks against Pakistan.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the report<\/a>, the Afghan rulers have also implemented other \u201cconcrete steps\u201d to \u201cneutralise\u201d the terrorist activity.<\/p>\n

The de facto Afghan rulers shared the details about the crackdown on the outlawed Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, or TTP, in bilateral talks they hosted last week in Kabul with a high-level delegation from Islamabad.<\/p>\n

The talks took place after four soldiers embraced martyrdom while repulsing terrorist attacks on two Pakistan Army check posts in the general area Kalash, District Chitral, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on September 6.<\/p>\n

The Afghan Taliban \u201carrested 200 TTP cadres returning from the Chitral attack. They are now behind bars,\u201d VOA quoted an official as saying on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to publicly interact with the media.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we have to wait and see the outcome of these steps before drawing any conclusions. So, you have to give them some time to consolidate these measures,\u201d the official remarked.<\/p>\n

Pakistan\u2019s special representative on Afghanistan, Asif Durrani, led the delegation to Kabul, with senior military officials also accompanying him. Officials in Islamabad at the time described as \u201cpromising\u201d their \u201cextensive\u201d discussions with Taliban Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi and his team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
