(Pakistan) An Islamic militant leader, wanted for kidnapping two Chinese engineers in Pakistan in 2004, has blown himself up to avoid arrest, Pakistan police say. Abdullah Mehsud, who spent 25 months in custody at the US base in Guantanamo Bay, died in south-western Balochistan province, a police spokesman said.
Mehsud, whose real name was Noor Alam, was a Pashtun, the same ethnic group as the Taleban of Afghanistan.
He fought for the Taleban against the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan.
Pakistan interior ministry spokesman Javed Cheema told the AFP news agency that Mehsud blew himself up with a hand grenade after soldiers raided a hideout in Zhob district of south-western Balochistan. "Abdullah Mehsud blew himself up with a grenade and died when security forces raided his hideout. Three of his accomplices were arrested," he said.
A local police official Atta Mohammed told the Associated Press news agency that no military personnel were wounded by the explosion. Mehsud was wanted for kidnapping two Chinese engineers, one of whom was killed, in South Waziristan in 2004.
To all the liberal do-gooders who cry out for human rights for the terrorists locked up in Guantanamo Bay. I just want to ask, what do you have to say about this zero who returned to a life of murder and was killed after getting released by the Yanks? I mean, according to your lot, he was wrongly incarcerated.
