Another Taliban Capture

Daniel Foster
The Corner

Newsweek reports that Pakistani forces have arrested Mullah Salam, the Taliban's "shadow" governor of Kunduz province in Afghanistan:

<<< According to the Taliban sources, at the time of his capture Mullah Salam was preparing to travel to meet Mullah Baradar. Some sources suggested that the arrests of the two insurgent leaders might be linked, though this could not be confirmed in Washington.

Mullah Salam was one of the Taliban's most effective commanders in northern Afghanistan and therefore one of the men most wanted by U.S. and NATO forces fighting there. Salam's soldiers are reputed to have been particularly deadly in their attacks on German troops fighting in northern Afghanistan. >>>
