Militants kill female 'US spy' in North Waziristan

Miranshah (NWFP), July 31 : An Afghan woman who was suspected of spying for the US was reportedly gunned down by militants in North Waziristan. Her body was found dumped in a sewer, said a witness and intelligence officials.

The body of Gulzada Bibi, in her mid-30s, was found with three bullet wounds in her chest near Degan village, 35 km west of Miranshah, the Daily Times quoted the officials as saying.

"A note pinned to her body said she belonged to Afghanistan's Paktia province and was caught with a satellite phone she had been using to spy for the US," said Abdullah, a resident of the village.

The note read that the body should not be buried to teach a lesson to other "spies" and that anyone spying for the Americans would meet the same fate.
