A former high-profile spokesman for the Taleban has been shot dead in eastern Afghanistan.

Mohammad Hanif was killed at his home in the province of Nangarhar along with three other people who were believed to be his relatives.

Another official said the others killed were Dr Hanif’s cousin, brother-in-law and nephew and that the attack may have been linked to a family feud.

Dr Hanif began speaking for Afghanistan’s former rulers in October 2005.

He was held in January 2007 in the border town of Towr Kham in Nangarhar soon after entering from Pakistan.

Afghanistan’s intelligence agents released a video in which Dr Hanif alleged Taleban leader Mullah Omar was living inside Pakistan
