Taliban Leader Killed
TEHRAN (FNA)- Senior Afghan officials announced on Monday that Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar has been killed in Pakistan.
"Mullah Mohammad Omar has been killed and his body is under postmortem studies at the coroners' office," a senior Afghan official told FNA this morning on the condition of anonymity.
The Afghan official said that the Taliban leader has been killed in Pakistan's Quetta city.
The source further pointed out that senior Taliban leaders had failed to establish a contact with Mullah Mohammad Omar since al-Qaeda Leader Osama bin Laden was allegedly killed in his compound near Islamabad almost two weeks ago.
Afghan and Pakistani local media and TV networks also confirmed the report.
"Mullah Omar was killed on his way from Quetta to North Waziristan," TOLO television said in its news bulletin.
