| Mullah Ameer Hasan Rehmani, the Taliban governor of Kandahar province may have been killed in US bombings on Arghandab town on the outskirts of Kandahar city. Another Taliban official anonymously said that Rehmani sustained injuries in the attack and was alive in Kandahar Mirwais Hospital. The governor was hosting an Iftar banquet in honor of Shireen Khan of Farah province, when the US bombed the area. Potentate-for-Life Mullah Omar, was also invited, but had to wash his hair that night. Besides Rehmani and Khan, 17 others, including the leaders' family members, were reportedly killed and several wounded as the roof of the bombed house caved in. Sounds like a nice party. Sorry we missed it. |
