Islamabad:

A former NHS surgeon who allegedly became a Taliban leader is being hunted for his role in the Peshawar school carnage that left 132 children dead.

According to the Daily Mirror, Dr Mirza Tariq Ali, 39, slipped out of the UK last year despite being ordered to surrender his passport while awaiting trial following violence at an anti-Assad demo in London.

Post his escape, Ali joined the Pakistani terror group and soon emerged as a senior commander.

A recent recruitment video released by the Pakistan Taliban shows Ali making threats against the Pakistan army.

British security services are now trying to track him down, while Pakistan wants to know how he managed to flee on bail, the report added.
