    Police: Pakistani Taliban leader dies in shootout

    KARACHI, Pakistan (AP) — Pakistani police say they have killed a local Taliban commander and arrested his associate after a shootout in a southern port city.

    Chief of Karachi's criminal investigations division Fayyaz Khan says two policemen were also wounded in Saturday's gunfight.

    He says the slain militant commander, Yaseen Shah, opened fire when officers intercepted his car on a road and demanded that he stop.

    Khan says Shah was behind a number of assassinations in Karachi. He did not provide further details, but the Pakistani Taliban have been accused of attacks on members of the Shiite minority and others in the country's south.

        This is a lie. I don't trust anything our government tells us right now. Man who got killed was a criminal who robbed few places. Now they are making a headline for western world like they really killed a terrorist.

        yawn , his name is on the terror list and his group has claimed resposibility for numerous actions. and I would not trust your govt because there are too many forces pulling at the power, only those deemed muslim enough by whoever comes out on top will live and then the small people will become statistics

        any country that has religion as it's main source of "wisdom" has some real problems. What else do we hold onto from the bronze age?

      Like we trust anything someone from 'pakistan' says. It's terrorist propaganda.
    • MarcD  •  4 mths ago
      The SAME Pakistani authorities who said they had no information about bin Ladin's whereabouts? Must be desperate for some of that US foreign aid.

      Since when did we start believing what Pakistani officials have to say? He was probably taken into protective custody and sent underground to avoid the drone with his name on it.
    • Mike  •  Kansas City, Missouri  •  4 mths ago
      He probably failed to pay the toll for the turnpike he was on. Oklahoma is just a little worse.

      Sorry I have my doubts on this. It seems more like Pakistan going "Look see we killed Taliban! Can we have money again please?"

      probably an illegal stop by security. he was profiled because of turban, beard and explosives in his car.

    • The RiverMaster  •  Knoxville, Tennessee  •  4 mths ago
      Hard to believe anything the Pakistan people say anymore after their recent crapola; they just want the US money floating back in to the country and this is no more than propaganda.
