In Balochistan, the plans to create a base for terrorist operations through the nexus of TTP and BLA's Majeed Brigade have been foiled, as the security forces have apprehended Nasrullah alias Maulvi Mansoor, an allegedly high-ranking commander of the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).

The operation, hailed as a major success by Balochistan's Home Minister Mir Zia Langove, underscores the effectiveness of intelligence and law enforcement agencies in thwarting terrorist activities.

Nasrullah, who served as the head of TTP Defense Council, was captured during a challenging operation aimed at disrupting a planned base for terrorist operations in Balochistan, orchestrated through a nexus involving TTP and the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) Majeed Brigade.

During a press conference on Wednesday, Mir Langove detailed the significance of the operation, emphasizing the role of security forces in apprehending Nasrullah and another key commander, Idris. "There has been a great success of the security forces against terrorism in the recent days," he started off.

Nasrullah confessed to his involvement in numerous attacks on Pakistani security forces and disclosed critical information about TTP's operational structure and affiliations. He also disclosed that he had been associated with the TTP for 16 years on various important posts.

He further revealed that he had been supplying arms and explosives to the TTP. According to Nasrullah's statements, the TTP had collaborated extensively with BLA Majeed Brigade under the influence of India's Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) that wanted to establish a joint centre for both in Afghanistan's Khuzdar.

Their shared agenda included destabilizing Pakistan, targeting the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), and fostering unrest through abductions for ransom, he disclosed. "Afghanistan and India are directly involved with the TTP from behind the scenes, and all of TTP commanders resided in Afghanistan. BLA Commander Bashir Zeb is also in Afghanistan," he added.

The arrested commander also claimed that before becoming the TTP, he had been participating in subversive activities from the platform of Baitullah Mehsud and had escaped to Afghanistan during Operation Zarb-e-Azb.

In his statement, he also revealed that he had attacked posts of the Pakistan Army in South Waziristan, North Waziristan, Dera Ismail Khan and along the Pak-Afghan border. At the time of his arrest, he was working as the head of the TTP Defence Commission and was responsible for controlling administrative and financial affairs centrally.

"The purpose of India's RAW was to create terrorist hideouts in the Khuzdar area of Balochistan," he added. "One of the aims of the BLA-TTP alliance is to create a narrative of missing persons by kidnapping for ransom."

Furthermore, Nasrullah revealed that TTP leaders, including Noor Wali Mehsud, and BLA's Bashir Zeb operate freely from Afghanistan, receiving support from elements within the interim Afghan government. He highlighted the exploitation of Afghan territory by anti-Pakistani terrorists, facilitated by the protection provided in Afghanistan.

Noor Wali also meets with Indian embassy and RAW officials, as well as Bashir Zeb of the BLA at the Indian embassy in Kabul, he alleged. The arrested commander also revealed that some BLA members did not want anyone else to participate in the looting of Balochistan, adding that he was convinced their arrest was facilitated by the BLA.
