Khaksar holds half of a five rupee Pakistani note he gave to a US official in April 1999 seeking assistance to defeat Taliban (File photo - June 9, 2002)
The Taleban says it has killed one of its former leaders who renounced1 the group that ruled Afghanistan until it was ousted2 by U.S.-led forces in 2001. Mullah Abdul Samad Khaksar was a vocal3 critic of the Taleban insurgency4 and Osama bin5 Laden's al Qaida terrorist network.
-----------------------------------
Former Taleban intelligence chief and deputy interior minister Mullah Abdul Samad Khaksar was killed Saturday afternoon near his home in Kandahar.
Taleban spokesmen are claiming responsibility for the killing6.
But Kandahar police chief, Abdul Wahidi, says the case is still under investigation7.
He says witnesses saw two men riding motorcycles shoot Khaksar as he was walking home from a nearby market.
In 2001, Khaksar defected to the Afghan army after a U.S.-led coalition8 ousted the militant9 Taleban regime for harboring al Qaida terrorists.
In September, he ran an unsuccessful campaign for Afghanistan's new parliament. U.S. and Afghan authorities have condemned10 the killing.
