Suspected militant killed in Afghan bombing
A clash between police and insurgents left one suspected militant dead in the southeast, while Taliban militants kidnapped a local leader from his home and shot him to death, officials said today.
The insurgents took Mullah Ahmed Akhunzada, the director of a provincial clerics council, from his home and killed him last night in Tirin Kot, said Uruzgan provincial police chief Gen Qasim Khan.
