Islamabad : Pro-Taliban militants executed a man in North Waziristan after accusing him of spying for the United States, an official said on Wednesday.
The bullet-riddled body of 28-year-old Mohammad Nawaz was found dumped on a roadside on Wednesday in the town of Mir Ali in North Waziristan, a local police official said.
Nawaz had been kidnapped in November after a US missile strike near Mir Ali town killed some local and foreign militants.
A note found near his body said Nawaz had been “found guilty of spying for the US,” the official said, requesting anonymity.
Militants have killed dozens of local tribesmen and Afghan refugees on charges of spying, mainly for the Pakistani government or US forces operating across the border in Afghanistan.
