Pakistani Taliban hang ISI officer as revenge for executions
2015-10-06
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Pak Taliban group has reportedly released a video which purportedly shows the execution of a Pak officer who was serving with the country's military intelligence -- Inter Services Intelligence (ISI).

The ISI officer, identified as Bashir Ahmad Khan, was hanged to death to avenge the execution of Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP) members.

Khan was originally serving with the 19th army air defense unit and later recruited by Pakistain's military intelligence agency -- ISI.

The Rooters news agency obtained the two videos which shows the introduction and execution of Khan.

Dressed in plain brown traditional Pak clothes and surrounded by gunnies wearing masks and camouflage, Khan speaks to the camera, saying "We were trained to trace the Taliban's training camps."

The video also shows one unmasked man in white robes kneels beside him and two men holding a black banner in the background that is embroidered with the kalma, a Muslim declaration of faith.

Another masked man is shown in the second video, saying "The hanging of Bashir Ahmad is our response to the Pak government who are busy hanging our group members. This is just the beginning and all those who are in our custody or those who have any links with the Pakistain government will face the same treatment." ​

With his eyes bound with black cloth and a noose around his neck and wrapped in a Pak flag, Khan is pushed off a rock after the masked man finishes speaking.

The snuffies shoot at his body and shout "God is great" as Khan dangles from the rope around his neck.
