ISLAMABAD: The Shura Ulema Mujahideen of Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has issued a fatwa against what it declared as propaganda by many foreign and some Pakistani media outlets.

It said instead of narrating facts, this media because of making propaganda has assumed the status of an agent of imperialist powers.

In a 20-page edict, an attempt was made to prove by quoting Quranic verses, Ahadis and sayings of experts of Fiqh that during the war those indulging in propaganda despite warning are to be killed.

Shura Ulema Mujahideen was asked in a questioner by TTP commander Ihsanullah Ihsan what is the status of that media which sides with Western and secular powers during the present war, dubs Mujahideen terrorists and enemy of peace, writes ‘killed’ for Taliban and ‘martyred’ for their opponents, considers defence of democracy as its policy, promotes obscenity and shamelessness, and calls itself as independent and impartial.

In the edict, such media was declared as totally partial.
