Hakimullah still safe in North Waziristan: sources
2012-01-21
Hakimullah Mehsud, the top bully boy commander of defunct Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP), is still alive and safe in some unknown location of North Wazoo, independent sources told DawnNews on Friday.
They're always alive and safe somewhere in North Wazoo until they start to stink. On the other hand they're always wondering on the radio whether somebody or other was zapped in the last drone appearance.
"Hakimullah is well and safe in North Waziristan... the news related to his killing in the drone attack carried out by the US military is incorrect," an official source told this news hound.

The claim was also verified from at least two other independent sources.

The sources claimed that Hakimullah has taken a number of measures to ensure his safety and secrecy, and that he had stopped using electronic communication equipment, such as wireless sets, for the same reason.

Almost a week ago, reports quoting unknown sources mentioned intercepted radio communications between Talibs detailing how Hakimullah was killed.
