Taliban ice 4 coppers in Nimroz
DOZENS of suspected Taliban fighters armed with assault rifles attacked a police checkpoint overnight and killed four policemen. The attack occurred in southwestern Afghanistan in the Khashrow district of Nimroz province, about 200km southwest of Kandahar, said Kareem Baravi, the Nimroz governor. Authorities have stepped up security in Nimroz in recent months to trace suspected al-Qaeda fugitives and fighters of the Taliban militia believed to be hiding there.
