That's the TTP, a small fundamentalist group in Pakistan. They do occassional terrorist attacks in rural northwest Pakistan, and those are of course horrible to those affected, but they aren't challenging the power of the state. They're also unrelated to the Afghan Taliban, with whom the Pakistan military has a neutral to good relationship.
