Leaked Taliban Videos Released By Anti-Taliban Group

A Pakistani anti-Taliban online group released eight videos showing atrocities committed by members of Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan group. Islamabad Observer claimed the videos were all new ones that were leaked to them.

Most of the videos showed graphic pictures of beheadings and executions of Pakistani troops and "spies." The videos were produced by different media outlets.

One of the videos showed a public execution of a man that featured in a Sky News report that was broadcasted last month. Sky News had reported at the time that the tape was handed to them.

Other videos showed a compilation of sniper attacks, which are an unusual method of attack for the Taliban, and a suicide attack carried out by a teenage suicide bomber.

A scroll across the screen on most videos read, "This video is shown only to expose the true face of the militants occupying areas of Pakistan. The videos were made by Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). Please help Pakistan get rid of those people. Talibanization is spreading very quickly all over the country. Please support us because if we fall, everyone will fall to them."
