Despite the ban, the SSP and TJP have continued to function and grow in strength. The SSP's arch rival, the Shia militant outfit Shia Ulema Council (SUC) had also demanded that the ban on Tehrik-e-Jafaria Pakistan (TJP) should be lifted just like in the case of the TLP. "If Imran Khan can talk to them, why not to us, "says Farooqi who claims that his fighters too fought along with the Taliban in Afghanistan. The SSP has launched a social media campaign asking Pakistani PM Imran Khan to lift the ban.ÄŻarooqi was referring to the "secret" deals made by the Imran Khan government first with the TLP after the thousands of violent supporters hit the road for the release of their leader and second was with the TTP for a month-long ceasefire with the help of the Haqqani Network. "Agar seedhi ungli se ghee nahin niklega, toh ungli tedhi karni padegi," (If government won't agree to our demands, we have other options), Farooqi warned the government to release all leaders and remove the terrors acts and make deals with them like it has done with the TLP and TTP. "We will be compelled to protest if the government fails to accept our demand," says Allama Aurangzeb Farooqi, the leader of the anti-Shia militant organisation Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP). Taking inspiration from terror-linked Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), other extremist organisations have now also asked Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan to remove the ban on their outfits.
