| [Iran Press TV Latest] The Bullet-ridden bodies of four Afghan policemen have been found in the city of Lashkar Gah, the capital of Helmand province, a local official says. The Taliban militants have reportedly claimed responsibility for the attacks in southern Afghanistan. "They seem like they were killed overnight by someone, maybe Taliban, at their post," said Daud Ahmadi, a provincial government spokesman. "We don't see any signs that they were killed in fighting," he noted. The officers' weapons and a police vehicle were also missing from the post at the gate of a government building in the center of the city, Ahmadi said. Taliban militants have been blamed for several such incidents in the past. |
