Taliban blow up two 'US spies' publicly

Miranshah (Pakistan), May 22 (ANI): Taliban militants strapped bombs to two men they accused of spying for the United States, blowing them up at a public execution, security officials said Friday.

According to The Nation, five masked militants paraded the handcuffed men before dozens of people and accused them of passing information to the United States on targets for its CIA-operated pilot-less drone aircraft.

"They strapped explosives around their bodies and then blew them up," an intelligence official said by telephone. (ANI)
