Junior is no longer even trying to stop the Taliban.

<font color=brown>The Taliban have been in control of a southeast Afghan town near the Pakistan border since hundreds of them attacked government offices a month ago and sent officials fleeing, a provincial security head said.

Barmal, 220 kilometres south of the capital Kabul and 15 kilometers from the border, was seized by the militants after fighting in August, Paktika province security chief Dawlat Khan said Friday.

Government forces were "chased from Barmal in mid-August after an attack by hundreds of Taliban and al-Qaida members coming from Pakistan," Khan told AFP in Urgun, 40 kilometres north of Barmal.

"Barmal has been under Taliban control since then," deputy provincial governor Sado Khan said. </font>
