Pakistani militants kidnap 60 in tribal area
Police in Pakistan say at least 60 people have been kidnapped by suspected militants in the country's volatile north-west tribal region. The hostages were seized in Kurram after the vehicles they were travelling in were ambushed by men reportedly dressed as police officers. Women and children were among those taken captive, according to the police. "The militants were posing as policemen and wearing police uniforms," said Mir Chaman, a senior local police official. He said that all efforts were being made to find the hostages. Posted by: ryuge 2010-05-15 |
