Blast in Khyber kills two anti-Taliban militiamen
2012-11-24
[Dawn] At least two members of an anti-Taliban militia were killed Friday evening when a roadside kaboom went kaboom! in Khyber tribal region, Khyber, one of seven agencies in Pakistain's semi-autonomous tribal belt bordering Afghanistan, officials said.

Local officials, speaking on condition of anonymity
... for fear of being murdered...
because they were not allowed to speak to the media, said the attack in Khyber's Bara tehsil was carried out through a remote-controlled bomb.

The bomb, which was planted along the road in Qamber Khel area, went kaboom! as volunteers of the 'aman lashkar' passed by in their vehicle -- completely destroying the car and killing both militia-men on the spot.

Pak Taliban front man Ehsanullah Ehsan, speaking to Dawn.Com from Qazi's guesthouse an undisclosed location, confirmed that the banned turban group had targeted the anti-Taliban fighters with a remote controlled improvised bomb (IED).
