 Waziristan's Taliban abduct VC Ajmal: TTP
2010-11-10
[Geo TV] KOHAT: A vital commander of outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistain said his outfit is not involved in kidnapping of Ajmal Khan, Vice Chancellor of Islamia College University Beautiful Downtown Peshawar, Geo News reported Tuesday.

Tariq Afridi, Taliban Commander for Darra Adamkhel and Khyber Agency, said this in an interview.

He said the TTP kidnapped Kohat University of Science and Technology's Vice Chancellor Lutfullah Kakakhel some days back, who was released after demands were met.

He said Lutfullah was released after the government had set free 50 of their accomplices and paid the ransom money.

Afridi said he received reports that Ajmal was lifted by Wazoo's Taliban.
