Pro-govt tribal leader killed
2006-02-23
Suspected militants shot and dead killed prominent pro-government tribal elder Arsala Khan in South Waziristan on Wednesday, where security has gone from bad to worse in recent months. Witnesses said that Arsala's car was sprayed with bullets in Wana bazaar, leaving him dead and two others injured. "He died on the spot, while two other passengers were also wounded in the attack," witnesses told Daily Times. The indiscriminant firing also injured a passer-by. One of the three wounded civilians was rushed to hospital in Dera Ismail Khan where he was said to be in serious condition.
