2003-01-29
Khalid Pashtun, spokesman for the governor of the southern city of Kandahar, said on Tuesday that Hekmatyar's men were fighting alongside Taliban and al Qaeda fighters. An Afghan security official in Spin Boldak said on Wednesday that Afghan troops returning from the mountains had seen 22 bodies. They also found what he called "secret documents" and lists of hundreds of names including people from Pakistani towns of Pishin and Kutchlak, both close to the Afghan-Pakistan border.
