U.S. drones kill 2 leaders in Pakistan
[DEFENCE.PK] U.S. drone strikes in Pakistain killed two leaders of al-Qaeda's Indian branch earlier this year, a front man for the bully boyz said Sunday, a major blow to the affiliate only months after its creation.

In an audio message, front man Osama Mahmood identified the dead as deputy chief Ahmed Farooq and Qari Imran

Dawn describes Qari as an al-Qaeda facilitator, and the camp specializes in turning out boomers. 10 to 15 bad boyz were dronezapped at the camp on September 11th, 2008...
, in charge of the group's Afghan affairs. Mahmood said a Jan. 5 drone strike in North Wazoo killed Imran, while a later drone strike killed Farooq. His claim corresponds with dates that previously reported suspected U.S. drone attacks were carried out in Pakistain's tribal region near the Afghan border.

Mahmood said that Farooq's real name was Raja SLearned Elders of Islamn and that he graduated from Islamabad's International Islamic University. Mahmoud said Imran's real name was Hidayatullah and that he was from Pakistain's central city of Multan in Punjab

province.

Mahmood also lashed out against Pakistain army over its operation in North Waziristan.

"This operation is being carried out under direct supervision of American forces, its leadership and with their direct help through drones and jets," Mahmood said. "The Mighty Pak Army is in fact just providing intelligence against the targets America wants to hit."

Mahmoud said U.S. drone strikes had killed some 50 members of his group. Pak officials had no immediate comment on the claims.

The CIA's drone strike program has killed al-Qaeda leaders, Pak Talibanfighters and other bully boyz hiding in its tribal regions even as it has evoked anger across Pakistain over allegations of widespread civilian casualties. Since 2004, the U.S. has carried out some 400 suspected drone strikes in the country, according to the New America Foundation's International Security Program, which tracks the American campaign.
