High-value target likely Chechen or Uzbek, may have escaped
A suspected senior al Qaeda member whom the Pakistani army thought it had surrounded in a remote border region is probably a Chechen or Uzbek militant leader, a commander said Saturday. "He is most probably a Chechen or Uzbek because all the intercepts we have been receiving have been in the Chechen or Uzbek language," Lieutenant-General Safder Hussain told reporters, referring to intercepted radio messages. Asked if the Chechen or Uzbek militant leader had escaped, Hussain said: "Maybe."
