According to Daily Times, suspected militants abducted nine government officials, including six women, at gunpoint on the Bannu-Miranshah highway in North Waziristan, officials said on May 19. Official sources said that more than 30 masked gunmen stopped the government officials’ vehicle near Nawrak, 15 kilometers east of Miranshah and near Mir Ali town, the headquarters of North Waziristan. “The officials were coming from Peshawar on a special survey mission to assess development projects in the region. They were accompanied by guards who could do little to protect them,” the officials said. The militants took away wireless communication equipment and six Kalashnikov rifles from the six guards.

Taliban militants said on September 2 that they had abducted scores of soldiers, demanding the withdrawal of troops from tribal areas in exchange for their release, according to Daily Times. “Our colleagues have captured them and put them in jails,” Zulfiqar Mehsud, a spokesman for the militants, told AFP by telephone from an undisclosed location. He said the fighters had surrounded the soldiers and forced them to surrender their weapons. “We took them into custody because the soldiers were preparing to launch an operation in South Waziristan,” he said, claiming responsibility for the kidnapping of 10 additional soldiers of the Frontier Corps on September 1. He said negotiations for their release could start once the government agreed to honour a peace accord it concluded with tribal militants in February 2005, under which Islamabad agreed to withdraw troops from the area.
