(Filed: 09/12/2001)

PAKISTAN'S military intelligence agency channelled arms and ammunition secretly to the Taliban for at least a month after President Musharraf declared support for Washington in the war on terrorism, it was reported yesterday.

Military advisers and officers from the powerful Inter-Services Intelligence agency also helped to strengthen Taliban defences around Kandahar, the regime's southern stronghold, and gave tactical advice, according to Western and Pakistani officials quoted in the New York Times.
