[Dawn] Militants crossed over from Afghanistan and rubbed out an anti-Taliban tribal elder and his son in the Bajaur tribal region on Wednesday, a Pak official said.Would his son be an anti-Taliban tribal younger, then?
Tariq Khan said Afsar Khan and his son Sher Alam were standing guard at a border post manned by members of a citizens' militia in the tribal region when around 15 beturbanned goons attacked them.
"Father! Look out!"
"Arrrr! Kill! Maim! Murder! Rape! Pillage!"
"Aaaiiieee!"
"Father! [Gurk!]"
"Maim! Pillage! Rape! Loot!..."
Police official Fazal Rabbi said Afsar Khan had been among volunteers who had burned the homes of a beturbanned goon faction some two months ago.
"Maim! Pillage! Rape! Loot!..."
The Mighty Pak Army has fought faceless myrmidons in the tribal belt for years, but faceless myrmidons still mount attacks there.
"Yeah! Dere attacks is like nuttin' to us!"
In recent months, several of the attacks have originated from across the mostly non-existent border in Afghanistan.
