Pakistani Militants Kill Accused US Spies

   VOA News  February 05, 2011

   The  bullet-riddled bodies of four men have been found in northwestern
   Pakistan, near the Afghan border.
   Pakistani  officials  said Saturday the bodies were discovered along a
   road in the town of Karak, in North Waziristan.
   They  said  a note attached to the bodies warned the same fate awaited
   anyone who spies for the United States.
   North  Waziristan  is  a  stronghold of Pakistani Taliban and al-Qaida
   militants  who  stage  cross-border attacks on U.S.-led NATO forces in
   Afghanistan.
   The  U.S.  has  increasingly  been  using  unmanned  aircraft  to bomb
   militants in the area.
   Elsewhere,  a  car  bomb  in  the  Khyber tribal district killed three
   passengers and two pedestrians.
   Local  officials  say  the bomb detonated Saturday as the car traveled
   near the village of Barqambarkhel.
