Taliban leader Mulla Omar, who heads the religious militia fighting US and NATO forces in Afghanistan, is in Pakistan, although not in the same area where Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is thought to be, according to a US intelligence source quoted by CNN on Saturday. The source said that the Taliban leader was believed to be in Quetta or its surroundings. The source said of Mulla Omar's location, "At one point we had it down to a particular section of Quetta."
President Pervez Musharraf did not address specifically the question on his visit to Kabul on Thursday, but said, "Please understand the Pakistani government is not behind anything that is happening in Afghanistan". |
