Taliban leader Mullah Omar killed in Pakistan

Afghan Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar has been killed in Pakistan, a private television channel reported Monday.

"Mullah Omar was killed on way from Quetta to North Waziristan, " TOLO television said in its news bulletin.

However, it did not provide details on how he was killed and by whom.

Meanwhile, a security official confirmed the killing, saying, " It is correct that Mullah Omar has been killed."

The official emphasized that Mullah Omar was killed inside Pakistan.

Taliban militants fighting Afghan and NATO-led troops in Afghanistan have yet to make comment.

Mullah Omar has survived massive U.S. military manhunt since the collapse of Taliban regime by U.S-led invasion in late 2001 for sheltering al-Qaida chief Osama Bin Laden.

U.S. commandos killed Bin Laden in a raid on his hideout in Pakistan on May 2.

Taleban leader killed in Pakistan - report

The Afghan media is reporting that Mullah Mohmmad Omar, the leader of the Taleban, has been found and killed, although there is no official confirmation at this stage.

Mullah Omar was shot dead as he was being moved from Quetta to North Waziristan two days ago, according to Afghan news outlet TOLOnews.

He was the spiritual leader of the Taleban movement that operates in parts of Afghanistan and Pakistan, operating as Afghanistan's de facto head of state from 1996 to late 2001, under the official title 'Head of the Supreme Council'.

The FBI has been hunting Mullah Omar since October 2001 for sheltering Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda militants in the years prior to the September 11 attacks.

News that he has been killed comes three weeks after US president Barack Obama confirmed that bin Laden had been found and shot dead in Pakistan.

Sources I've read mention he was killed outside Quetta... Possibly in the middle of moving from one location to another. I think most likely Pakistan Army or ISI killed him. Interesting how this happens soon after the attack on PAF Faisal Base.

The Americans will now stop only after exterminating their most wanted list.
