Haqqani Facilitator, 10 Insurgents Arrested in Afghan Raids
2013-03-11
[TOLONEWS] A Haqqani facilitator and 10 other insurgents have been arrested Sunday in separate security forces operations in Afghanistan, Isaf said.

"An Afghan and coalition security force arrested a Haqqani facilitator and one other insurgent during an operation in Gardez district, Paktiya province, today," Isaf said in a statement.

The facilitator is accused of procuring and distributing lethal aid to extremist fighters, and is believed to have history of planning attacks against Afghan and coalition forces, the statement said.

Nine other insurgents have been arrested in an operation in Panjwa'i district of southern Kandahar province, the statement said.

The operation was launched to search for a Taliban commander who is accused of constructing improvised explosive devices and coordinating their use in attacks throughout the district, Isaf said.

"He is also believed to exercise operational control over a cell of Taliban fighters and maintain a sophisticated operations center used to plan insurgent activity," it added.

Isaf said the security forces "positively identified" fighters conducting insurgent activity and engaged them, killing three militants.
