Guess what Nek Mohammed used to do for a living ...
Skipping through a very interesting Pakistani editorial on the ramifications of the recent amnesty ... | But the problem with this approach is that local abettors like Nek Muhammad are actually a part of the Taliban-Al Qaeda network. As disclosed by PTV, Nek Muhammad was commandant of a guerrilla training camp in Afghanistan before he decided to take his trainees, most of them from Chechnya and Uzbekistan, to South Waziristan, to use as a launching pad for attacks inside Afghanistan. Talking to a newspaper reporter after the âpardonâ, Nek Muhammad still swore allegiance to âAmirul Momineenâ Mullah Omar rather than Pakistan â because the Taliban leader was âthe caliph of all Muslims.'
