Pakistani Taliban threatens Burma

Last week Amnesty International said there were “credible reports” of abuses – including rape, destruction of property and unlawful killings – by both Rakhine Buddhists and by Burmese government forces.

Thousands have fled to neighbouring Bangladesh as a result.

A Pakistan government spokesman expressed concern for Muslims in Burma.

“Pakistan hopes that government of Burma would take effective measures to overcome the deteriorating law and order situation,” he said.

The TTP has close ties to al-Qaeda but few analysts believe it has the capacity to launch attacks beyond Pakistan.
