In the first official confirmation of the veteran commander's death, Mr Rabbani described him as a 'national hero' who had martyred himself for 'jihad and resistance'. A spokesman for Mr Rabbani said that commander Masood had died at 10.00 am (0530 GMT) on Saturday morning in a hospital in northern Afghanistan, after losing his last battle against injuries sustained in Sunday's suicide bombing. 'Masood was martyred in a conspiracy involving Pakistan, the terrorist group of Osama bin Laden and the Taleban,' Mr Rabbani said in a message read to AFP by his spokesman, Engineer Beryalai. -- AFP <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
