LAHORE: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-S (JUI-S) Chief Maulana Sami ul Haq on Sunday proclaimed Taliban as his offspring and said they were fighting a war for freedom of their country, ARY News reported.

Addressing Ulema and Madaris Protection Convention in Lahore, he said, “Taliban are my children. We are proud of Taliban. They are fighting for freedom of their country.”

He said they first disintegrated Soviet Union and then gave the United States a tough time.

The JUI chief and Difa-e-Pakistan Council leader also said when people rejected Taliban, he owned them.

This surprising statement has come at a time when the Supreme Court (SC) has issued charge sheet against Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan saying that his ministry was working without a clear leadership and vision.

The commission report on August 8 carnage in Quetta incident has questioned Nisar’s meeting with leader of a banned outfit.
