Dead militants declared foreigners
2005-01-20
Two suspected militants killed in a bomb explosion in the Makeen area of South Waziristan Agency on Monday night were declared foreigners following confirmation from local tribesmen and intelligence agencies. A military statement on Wednesday said the intelligence agencies and local tribesmen 'confirmed' that the two terrorists were 'foreign nationals.' "The foreign terrorists were killed while attempting to plant a mine aimed at killing Ibrahim Khan, Makeen peace committee senior vice-president," the statement said. "Their bodies were shifted to Peshawar to ascertain their nationalities and various other details," the statement continued. Two anti-personnel mines, eight hand-grenades, two small machine-guns and 235 rounds were recovered from their custody, the statement added.
