Another Taliban commander has denied recent reports that the terror
group's top leader is dead, and said the leader would soon release
evidence to prove he is alive.
An unnamed commander said he personally met with Hakeemullah Mehsud,
the leader of the Movement of the Taliban in Pakistan, during a meeting
of the shura majlis, or executive council, over the past 24 hours. The
media have claimed that Hakeemullah died on three separate occasions
since Jan. 14.
"Now I am dead sure he is alive," the Taliban commander told The News. "I personally held a meeting with him and found him safe and sound."
