BBC - Taleban commander ‘kills himself’

An Islamic militant leader, wanted for kidnapping two Chinese engineers in Pakistan in 2004, has blown himself up to avoid arrest, Pakistani police say.

Abdullah Mehsud, who spent 25 months in custody at the US base in Guantanamo Bay, died in south-western Balochistan province, a police spokesman said.

If only he’d stayed “indefinitely” in Guantanamo, he might still be alive!
