Taliban leafleters held in Khost
 KHOST: Afghan police said on Thursday they have arrested a man carrying 500 leaflets signed by a Taliban commander and urging his countrymen to fight against US forces in the country. The Afghan was arrested upon arrival from Pakistan in the southeastern province of Khost on Wednesday, provincial police commander Mohmmad Ayoob told AFP. "The letters signed by Mullah Sayful Rahman call for a jihad (holy war) against the government and coalition forces," the commander said. Mullah Sayful Rahman, who is wanted by the Afghan government and the US-led military, is one of the key Taliban commanders in the violence-hit southeastern region, according to Ayoob.
