The opening as it read in 2020

Omar Khalid Khorasani ( ), also known as Abdul Wali Raghib , is a militant Islamist who had served as the leader of the Jamaat-ul-Ahrar after splitting ways with Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan . He had been considered one of TTP's most effective and powerful leaders in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas . He was ousted by Maulana Fazlullah for forming "dubious" organizations such as Junad-i-Hafza, Ahrar-ul-Hind and Jamaat-ul-Ahrar . It was reported in October 2017 that he had died in a drone strike carried out by United States in Paktia Province of Afghanistan . Reports of Khorasani's death were proven false when the United States added Khorasani to the U.S State Department's Rewards for Justice wanted list on March 7, 2018.1
