In a statement, a spokesperson of the faction denounced terrorist attacks against the government. The separation indicates strong disagreement between TTP leaders and Mullah Fazlullah, who was made TTP chief after the killing of Hakimullah Mehsud in a US drone strike in 2013.
Earlier, TTP Sajna and TTP Punjab had ended association with the umbrella group, while TTP Mohmand had established new branch TTP Ihrar.
After the death of Hakimullah Mehsud, the Sheheryar group had refused to recognise Asmatullah Shaheen as interim TTP chief and had fought with his supporters in clashes that lasted for months and killed scores including Shaheen himself. The group, after the death of Shaheeh, joined hands with Fazlullah who took over the reins of the militant group.

Good...now let them fight and kill each other..we need minimum number of these kinds of morons in our country...Bravo Pak Army
I am no Alim but spreading jahaliat in the name of Islam should be blasphemy and these crazies in the mountains and our mad mullahs in the madrassas should be taken to task for trying to destroy Pakistan from within with their perverse message of hate.
Go Pak Fauj
Great success for great PAK ARMY
Proof of Zarb-e-Azb's slow but sure progress.
Send them all to occupied KAshmir.
Armed forces are the only institution in Pakistan who can get the job done, unlike the politicians of the country. General Raheel you are my Hero!!!
After the success of Zarb e Azb the terrorists are getting desperate, trying to save their skin any way they can. Pakistan Army must not show mercy to these terrorists.
