Taliban claim Dargai attack
2006-11-09
An unknown caller claimed that Pakistani Taliban carried out WednesdayÂ’s deadly suicide attack on an army camp that killed 42 soldiers.
“We have 275 volunteers who have offered to be suicide bombers. We had a policy not to attack Pakistani forces, but after the Bajaur attack we have changed our policy now.”
The man refused to give his name in a telephone call to journalist Rahimullah Yousafzai. “He said that the group behind the suicide attack at an army camp is led by Abu Kalim Mohammad Ansari,” Yousafzai told AFP.

“We have recorded the statement which the suicide bomber gave before the attack and we will release it soon,” the caller said. “We have 275 volunteers who have offered to be suicide bombers,” he added. “We had a policy not to attack Pakistani forces, but after the Bajaur attack we have changed our policy now,” the caller said.
