Top Taleban spokesman arrested in Afghanistan Web posted at: 1/17/2007 1:24:37 Source ::: AFP KABUL . Afghan intelligence agents arrested one of the top spokesmen for the insurgent Taleban movement as he crossed into Afghanistan from Pakistan, the intelligence agency said yesterday. Mohammad Hanif was arrested on Monday at the Torkham border post, intelligence agency spokesman Sayed Ansari said. "Our intelligence officers in (the eastern city of) Jalalabad arrested Abdul Haqiq who was operating under the codename of Doctor Mohammad Hanif who was the Taleban spokesman," Ansari said. Hanif regularly spoke to the international and Afghan media from secret locations about Taleban activities in eastern Afghanistan saying he was speaking on behalf of the extremist movement. He was one of the most high-profile Taleban spokesmen along with Yousuf Ahmadi, who usually speaks about issues in southern Afghanistan. They were appointed after the chief spokesman, Abdul Latif Hakimi, was arrested in Pakistan in October 2005. +++ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
