2007-04-30
Suspected tribal militants attacked an army check post at Tang Garhi in North Waziristan with heavy weapons early on Sunday, killing one soldier, sources told Daily Times on Sunday. “One soldier was killed when unidentified men attacked the army check post at 2am on Sunday,” the sources said. They said that the check post was located in Naridog, 20 kilometres north of Miranshah. The sources said that troops returned fire, but it was not clear if they hit anything the attackers had suffered any casualties.

AFP reported that three militants were killed when the troops deployed at Naridog check post returned fire. An intelligence officer also confirmed to the Associated Press that three militants were killed in the attack. Military officials were not immediately available to confirm the clash or casualties.

Meanwhile, suspected militants shot dead two men in South Waziristan for “spying for the United States”. The bodies were found in Jandola, gateway to South Waziristan, an administration official in Tank city told Daily Times. He said that a note found besides the two bodies accused them of spying for the US and of making fake currency.
