PESHAWAR: Pro-Tribal militants set bundles of newspapers on fire in North Waziristan on Monday and threatened newspaper correspondents who referred to them as 'terrorists' and 'miscreants', eyewitnesses said. "As the van bringing Urdu and English newspapers reached Mir Ali, around eight masked Taliban torched the newspapers," a tribal journalist told Daily Times. A pamphlet was later left in the bazaar, reading: "If any newspaper calls us terrorists or miscreants, we will hold its North Waziristan correspondent responsible." |
