Here We Go Again...Pakistani Taliban Leader, Mehsud, Reported as Still Alive After Being Reported Dead
Once again, Pakistani Taliban leader, Hakimullah Mehsud, is apparently alive after he was killed by a drone strike...once again this cat has his ninth damn life...and once again we all put up the story of his demise and have to probably retract the damn thing.
Well, speaking for myself, I won't EVER put up another story of this mutherfucker dying until I see a photo of his dead body and a copy of his DNA.
I realize we all want this guy dead and the world will be better off without him but for pete's sakes, when are the Pakistanis gonna get these reports right? Good grief.
The story is from DAWN.
Hakimullah still safe in North Waziristan: sources
ISLAMABAD: Hakimullah Mehsud, the top militant commander of defunct Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), is still alive and safe in some unknown location of North Waziristan, independent sources told DawnNews on Friday.
“Hakimullah is well and safe in North Waziristan… the news related to his killing in the drone attack carried out by the US military is incorrect,” an official source told this reporter.
The claim was also verified from at least two other independent sources.
The sources claimed that Hakimullah has taken a number of measures to ensure his safety and secrecy, and that he had stopped using electronic communication equipment, such as wireless sets, for the same reason.
Almost a week ago, reports quoting unknown sources mentioned intercepted radio communications between Taliban militants detailing how Hakimullah was killed.
In February 2011 similar media reports had claimed the killing of the TTP chief, however later incidents proved otherwise.
