PESHAWAR: A top Taliban commander who was injured in a military operation in
which he was arrested last week, died from his injuries on Sunday, the
Pakistani military said.
'Sher Mohammad Qasab, who had multiple bullet wounds succumbed to his
injuries on Sunday morning,' it said in a statement.
The army had Wednesday arrested Sher Mohammad Qasab, who is one of the most
senior Taliban commanders on a most wanted list in the Swat valley that
offered Rs10 million in reward money.
'A team of army doctors was treating Sher Mohammad Qasab but he could not
survive,' the statement said.
The army had earlier said Qasab was injured and arrested in a military
operation in which three of his sons were killed and another captured.

Qasab personally beheaded Pakistani military and other captives of
Fazlullah's TTP organization.
