Pak wants Mullah Fazlullah extradited
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan wants
Afghanistan to hand over Mullah Fazlullah, believing he was hiding in
Afghanistan and involved in planning the attack on Malala Yousafzai, the
14-year old activist for women's right to education, sources told Geo News on
Sunday.
The diplomatic sources revealed that the demand was made by
Pakistan Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar during her meeting with US special
envoy to Pakistan and Afghanistan, Mark Grossman.
Grossman was told that Mullah Fazlullah was involved in the
attack on Malala Yousafzai and that the US should employ its influence towards
the extradition of Fazlullah.
Mullah Fazlullah along with his men is hiding in Kunar
province of Afghanistan, the Pak-Afghan especial envoy was told.
Meanwhile, Pakistan had, on many occasions in the past,
informed the ISAF and Afghan authorities about Mullah Fazlullah's activities.
According to sources, Mullah Fazlullah has executed as many
as 15 cross border attacks in Pakistan over the past one year. These attacks
targeted Pakistani security check posts and also its villages.
It has also been learnt that those who came and attacked
Malala Yousafzai had escaped back to Afghanistan.
