Taliban splinter group claims responsibility for Pak attack

Ahrarul Hind, a little known splinter group of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, today claimed responsibility for the brazen attack on a court premises in Pakistan's federal capital that left 11 people dead including a judge.
Asad Mansoor, a spokesperson for the Ahrarul Hind, claimed that the court was targeted as the prevailing system in the country was un-Islamic which included the courts and its administration.
He added that their struggle would continue till Sharia law was implemented in Pakistan.
Ahrarul Hind, which recently came into the limelight in the media, had criticised both the government and TTP for starting negotiations, Dawn News reported.

Details about the group were not available, but sources said two brothers from Attock district had set up the group after separating from the TTP.
