#3 "but the BBCâs Rahimullah Yusufzai, a long-time watcher of the Taleban, says it is not clear how important a role he has played in recent years."

Whether or not he has played an important role, he was involved in the attacks on 9/11. It's time to bring out the pliers & meat hooks and make this PIG squeal. If doesn't want to talk, then a hollow point at close range will suffice. Bottom line is that he plots against and hates the U.S.

BTW, I love the way the BBC is making excuses for this terrorist.

I wouldn't be surprised if Beebs stays on this story to make sure he is not tortured. I believe the Egyptian introgaters are in order here. Let's stop being PC and call the the Taliban for who they are, "Paki's".

#4 1. hats off to the afghan "federales" who made the catch. Theyve come a long way. (insert generic praise of our brave muslim allies here)
2. Hats off to US spec ops, intell, etc who certainly provided the the info behind the catch
3. Lets hope he leads mullah omar Hisself. That would be a big catch, and would probably help in the Osama hunt.

#9 More details, they bagged three of them:
Acting on a tip from an informant, Afghanistan provincial forces arrested two top Taliban figures in southern Afghanistan, The Telegraph reported Tuesday. Captured were the personal security chief for Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar,Toor Mullah Naqibullah Khan, and Mullah Angar, another senior official with the fundamentalist Islamic group. The pair were riding in a van between Arghandab and Kandahar, and police reported also seizing "a satellite phone and some important documents."

#10 Captured were the personal security chief for Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar,Toor Mullah Naqibullah Khan, and Mullah Angar, another senior official with the fundamentalist

Three? I thought Toor Mullah Naqibullah Khan WAS the personal security chief for Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar. Thus making a pair, along with the other guy.

#11 Khan and Angar--oops, Con and Anger. Perfect names for criminal psychopaths.
