Abdullah Mehsud dead: spokesman
Staff Report
PESHAWAR: A spokesman for wanted tribal militant Abdullah Mehsud claimed on Sunday that the kidnapper of two Chinese engineers died of his wounds after a bullet pierced his chest in an Army commandos-led operation in North Waziristan Agency on March 5.
Abdullah died of his wounds on Thursday (March 10) at an unknown location, the spokesman told tribal journalist Sailab Mehsud who Abdullah wished to be called first to give the news of his martyrdom.
The spokesman for the one-legged militant, former Guantanamo Bay inmate, said the 28-year-old Abdullah was hit by bullets in his chest during the March 5 operation in which army claimed to have killed two foreigners and arrested 11 others.
Abdullahs comrades managed to take out the wounded commander and treated at a place in Shawal area where the military launched another search operation in the same area on Sunday arresting 10 local tribal people, the spokesman claimed.
Military spokesman Maj Gen Shaukat Sultan said he had no information to confirm Abdullah spokesmans claim. I am not in a position to say either yes or no. I have no confirmation yet, he told Daily Times.
The spokesman declined to name himself when the tribal journalist asked him to do so. The spokesman made the phone call from outside Miranshah, regional headquarters of North Waziristan Agency where the military was suspecting militants presence after their strongholds were captured in neighbourhood South Waziristan, the tribal journalist told Daily Times.
Where does it say this fellow was at gitmo? I can't find it.
What are you complaining about? Maybe they should release all of them if this is their fate.
It's right there in the article.
A good terrorist is a dead terrorist.
"So put your brain cells to work and support good ol' USA you Human Rights Nut Heads."
LOL, I LIKE the way you said that!
Liberalism kills...
He cheated the hangman!
Dogpiling shows some articles that have him claiming that he was at Gitmo, but nothing about any American announcement of releasing him from there.
If so, this should earn the CIA a dunce cap. Supposedly he had some deep Pakistani ties that even our smartest intelligence never suspected.
"Maybe they should release all of them"
Sure out of the back of a C130 at 10,000 feet SANS parachute!
I agree. He was better off with panties on his head, and other acts of humiliation.
This Muhammadan screwball was entertaining to behold. Long hair, a beard, a fat face, he was the hippie Jihadi. Now he's as dead as Janis Joplin
AMF!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do they deserve each other?

So young, so sure, so dead.
What a handsome corpse. They said the same about Jim Morrison.
"What is best in life?" To crush the jihadists, to drive their collaborators before you, and to hear the lamentations of Al Jazeera! Allahu fubar!
