Al-Qaeda, tribals agree to release hostages
Militants including al Qaeda fighters under siege by Pakistani forces on the Afghan border have agreed to release 14 government men captured at the start of fighting 12 days ago, a negotiator said on Saturday. "We have managed to persuade them to release all the kidnapped people. They will be here some time today or early tomorrow," said tribal elder Malik Waris Khan Afridi, speaking in the western town of Wana.
