Daily Times quoting New York Times on February 16 reported that the United States (US) and Pakistani intelligence services arrested the top military ‘commander’ of Taliban, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, in Karachi. Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar was arrested in Karachi “several days ago” by US and Pakistani intelligence services, said the New York Times and other US media, citing unnamed US Government officials. Confirming the report, Reuters quoted a US official as saying that the Taliban’s top military ‘commander’ had been arrested in Pakistan in a joint raid. “I would call it significant,” said another US official of Mullah Baradar’s arrest. “But even when you get their leaders, they’ve shown an amazing resilience to bounce back. It’s an adaptive organisation,” he added. The details of Baradar’s apparent arrest were unclear, but the New York Times said the Taliban ‘commander’ was arrested by operatives from Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and US’s Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). One Pakistani officer said Baradar was arrested 10 days ago with the assistance of the US and “was talking” to his interrogators. Baradar is in charge of the Taliban’s military operations and leadership council, and was a close associate of al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden before the September 11, 2001, attacks, added the New York Times.
