PESHAWAR: Security officials in Peshawar said on Monday night there was no confirmation of the death of the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan chief Mullah Fazlullah in a drone strike in Afghanistan’s eastern Nangarhar province as reported by some TV channels quoting a Dubai newspaper.
“We are trying to verify these reports,” a senior security official said. “The last we heard about him was that he was in Kunar and not in Nangarhar,” the official said.

A very notorious man, Fazlullah, who has no love for humanity.

Biggest problem is the culture they are brought up with.

pakistan's armed drones are more accurate and its intelligence is better than US drones or intelligence. Why in the world we do not use our own drones to eliminate these murderers and save our civilians from death and destruction. are our drones just to be a show piece?

@Ashis No Mr. Ashis, the biggest problem is your country India funding and supporting and supplying and creating monsters like these to destabilize Pakistan.

It is very strange that USA is eliminating terrorists along with innocent people of Pakistan through drone attacks inside Pakistan. But most wanted terrorist mullah Fazalulallah is still beyond reach of USA.

@samin ahmed .... Pakistan's intelligence is not superior to US intelligence. Pakistan does not manufacture armed drones and the US has given none to the Pak military. Pakistan has no scientifically equipped satellites in space like Aqua and Terra. Pakistan is also dependent on the American NSA to trace the terrorists' mobile phone calls. American satellites can read the license plate on your car and see what kind of shoes you are wearing.
