Jaamat ul-Ahrar (Assembly of the Freedmen) was a militant group that split away from the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan in 2014.[11] The group got media attention after it took responsibility for the 2014 Wagah border suicide attack. In 2020, the group rejoined the TTP. The group was designated a terrorist group by Pakistan and the UN in 2017.[12]
