Taliban claim beheading two US translators
2005-11-10
Taliban guerrillas in Afghanistan have beheaded two men who were working as translators for US forces, said Mauli Ahmadullah Ahmadi, a Taliban commander, on Wednesday. The two men of Afghan origin were kidnapped by Taliban members in Uruzgan this week and were killed on Tuesday night, said Ahmadi. “Their bodies have been dumped on a road side. Anyone can take them,” he said by telephone from an undisclosed location. He identified the two men as Mohammad Yahya and Achakzai.

A US military spokeswoman said she had no information about any such incident. An Afghan Interior Ministry official said he too had no information and authorities in Uruzgan could not be immediately reached for comment.
