| WANA: Pro-Taliban militants beheaded a police officer on Monday in South Waziristan after accusing him of spying for security forces, police said. The body of 35-year-old Shaukat Khan was found in a field at Dabar village a day after he was abducted by gunmen, reported senior police officer Mumtaz Zarin. Zarin said that a note found near the body said he was involved in the killing of warlord Nek Muhammad in a suspected US missile strike in June 2004 in the region. “He had admitted his role in providing intelligence to the authorities.... We have repeatedly said we will teach such people a lesson”, the note said. |
