Taliban kill 'US spy' in Waziristan
Taliban shot dead a tribesman in North Waziristan Agency, accusing him of spying for the United States, officials said on Friday. The body of the 30-year-old man was dumped on a roadside on Friday in the town of Mir Ali in North Waziristan, they said. A note attached to the victim's body warned that anyone "found spying against mujahedeen would face the same fate," a security official said. Local officials said the man's body had been handed over to his family for burial. Taliban have killed several people whom they accuse of spying for the Pakistani army and the US-led forces operating across the border in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, suspected Taliban dumped two dead bodies, one of them beheaded, in the Sanpaga Mountain in Upper Orakzai Agency on Friday. The identities of the dead could not be verified.
