 Taliban leader Mullah Omar has sacked one of his key military commanders, accusing him of not obeying orders, a spokesman said on Saturday.

Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahed read over the telephone to AFP a statement issued by Omar that said Mullah Mansoor Dadullah was sacked “because he disobeyed orders of the Islamic Emirate” of Taliban. The statement did not give details. Mansoor succeeded his elder brother — Taliban commander Mullah Dadullah — who was killed in an Afghan and NATO operation in May. |
