Bomb Kills Anti-Taliban Tribal Elder in NW Pakistan
|
[AnNahar] roadside kaboom killed an anti-Taliban tribal elder in a lawless Pak district bordering Afghanistan on Tuesday, officials said.
The bomb went kaboom! when Malik Mohammad Younis, a prominent elder of the Salarzai tribe, was traveling in a vehicle with his two sons in Gulloshah village near Khar, the main town in Bajaur district where Talibs have been active.
"Malik Mohammad Younis was killed and his two sons were maimed after a bomb planted on a roadside went kaboom! as their vehicle passed," tribal administration official Saaz Mohammad told AFP.
He said nobody immediately grabbed credit. Talibs have carried out several kabooms against tribal elders who have raised and supported vigilantes against them.
Intelligence officials confirmed the attack and death, and said Younis supported the government's offensive against Talibs and had been active in organizing tribes to combat the krazed killers.
Bajaur is one of seven semi-autonomous tribal districts along Pakistain's mountainous western border which became a hotbed of Islamist gunnies following the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.
Pakistain began a long-awaited push to clear krazed killer bases from the North  Wazoo tribal district in June last year after a bloody Taliban attack on Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...
airport sank faltering peace talks.
The army has intensified its offensive since the Taliban's massacre of 153 people, 134 of them children, in a school in the northwestern city of Beautiful Downtown Peshawar
...capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (formerly known as the North-West Frontier Province), administrative and economic hub for the Federally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan. Peshawar is situated near the eastern end of the Khyber Pass, convenient to the Pak-Afghan border. Peshawar has evolved into one of Pakistan's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire.
