Terrorist warlord Mullo Abdullo killed in Tajikistan
(Itar-Tass) -- Notorious terrorist warlord Mullo Abdullo was killed in the eastern Rasht district of Tajikistan, sources in the Tajik Security State Committee told Itar-Tass on Friday. A team of criminal experts was dispatched to the special operation area for the final identification of the killed terrorist, the sources said.

Six bad boyz were potted in the clash. A Tajik security commando was killed either. Another security officer was maimed. The terrorist warlord had been chased down in Tajikistan for about three years.

Mullo Abdullo was one of the most notorious warlords of the Tajik intransigent opposition. After the peace treaty signed in Moscow in 1997 that put an end to a five-year civil war between the Islamic opposition and the governmental troops he refused to surrender and continued to fight against the authorities together with his rebels. The governmental troops forced Mullo Abdullo to flee Afghanistan, where he sided with the Taliban fighters. He appeared again in the Tajik foothills of the Pamir Mountains three years ago seeking to stage a new jihad war.

In two special operations the governmental troops involving the army destroyed over 50 gunnies in 2009-2010. More than 30 gunnies laid down arms in the agreement to the non-prosecution guarantees, which the authorities gave to them. Mullo Abdullo and his few guerrillas managed to escape then.

The third anti-terrorist operation, in which the terrorist warlord was destroyed, was launched in the morning on April 14 and "is actually over," a source in the Tajik security services said.
