Three Taliban commanders have been arrested in a US-led sweep of south-eastern Afghanistan aimed at crushing members of the former regime and their Al Qaeda allies, an Afghan army officer said.

US-led forces were hunting a former Taliban provincial governor, Mullah Abdul Razzaq, when they caught the three, identified as Mullah Naimatullah, Mullah Saleh Mohammad and Mullah Baluch. It was not clear how powerful the three captured men were and US authorities were not immediately available for comment.

We need to keep an eye on the Uzbek angle...sounds like someone was traveling with his bodyguard's.

....when they caught the three, identified as Mullah Naimatullah,.....

Is this not the same guy the thread article above identifies as being shot?

I saw that someone with that name had been arrested before. Interesting. Well, he's dead now. At least as dead as people can be over there. I saw on another thread that Atef was killed, again.

Some folks just need killing , a second or third time if need be.

Could have gone to Gitmo and been released to Pakistan or Uzbekistan. There was another released allumni of Gitmo killed in Pakistan by the Pakistani Army a few days ago.
