Jirga heads for talks with Taliban
2007-07-20
A helicopter took members of an all-tribes jirga to North Waziristan on Thursday to hold talks with Taliban in a bid to save a peace accord. “We are going to Miranshah to discuss the peace accord with Taliban leaders,” Malik Waris Khan, a member of the jirga, said. The jirga left after a meeting with NWFP Governor Ali Jan Orakzai. Sources said the jirga members were driven to a secret location to meet Maulana Gul Bahadar, a senior Taliban commander.
