At least 14 dead in Kabul suicide attack

[BATKHELA-MOVIES] KABUL: At least 14 people, including foreign forces, were killed when a Taliban car bomber struck a US-run NATO convoy travelling through the Afghan capital Kabul on Saturday.

The attacker detonated his Toyota Sedan car at 11:20 am (0650 GMT) in the southwest of the city, and the area was now blocked by Afghan and international forces, said police spokesman Hashmat Stanikzai.

At least ten foreign forces, three civilians and a policeman were among the casualties.

"The attack targeted an American NATO bus," said a Western military official on condition of anonymity. "There are 10 or 11 people, mostly Americans," he said, giving the death toll.

Spokesman for the interior ministry Siddiq Siddiqui said that three civilians and a policeman had also been killed but he had no information on foreign forces.

"It was a huge explosion, I saw at least ten bodies of foreign forces taken out of their capsized bus and evacuated by two helicopters," one witness told AFP at the scene.

Thick black smoke could be seen rising from an inferno still burning at the scene, while fire hoses were putting out another nearby, footage on private television channel Tolo showed.

NATO's coalition forces were seen tending to at least once casualty on the ground, while fire trucks and ambulances, sirens blaring, were on their way to the scene where one charred vehicle could be seen lying on its side.

A spokesman for NATO's International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said the force could not give further details until further information had been gathered.

The Taliban, fighting Afghan and Western forces to regain control of Afghanistan after ten years of bloody insurgency, claimed responsibility for the attack.

Teacher subjects students to inhumane punishment

 GUJRANWALA: A teacher at a private school here painted the face of seven female students black after they failed to complete their assignment, Geo News reported. 

When the Geo News team arrived to speak to the school administration, the team was threatened and assaulted.

Protesting parents outside the school located at Street No.3, Chirangh Nagar Noshera Road are asking why their daughters were subjected to this inhumane punishment.

According to students of the school, the teacher punched the girls of class seven over not completing their assignment. Later she painted the face of female students with ink and asked them to leave the school.

Chief Minister Punjab Shahbaz Shairf took notice of the incident and the registration for the school was cancelled by the commissioner.

Polish transsexual makes history as lawmaker

 WARSAW: Anna Grodzka sits with poise in her leafy suburban home, flicks her hair and gently shoos away her cat.

The 57-year-old is still coming to terms with being elected Poland's first-ever transsexual lawmaker for an anti-clerical party that is locking horns with conservatives in overwhelmingly Catholic Poland.

"I'm not a single-issue politician," said left-winger Grodzka, who only recently completed what she calls her identity correction.

"Going into politics isn't just about representing transsexuals, but about social issues," the long-time left-winger told.

Grodzka will take up her parliamentary seat on November 8, along with Poland's 459 other newly elected deputies.

In the October 9 polls, the declared atheist was voted in with almost 20,000 votes in the southern city of Krakow, which has a conservative reputation but is also home to a large student and artist community.

Grodzka will be the world's only openly transgender lawmaker -- a broader term than transsexual including those who have not had a sex-change but plan to, or simply opt to live under a different gender.

The first recorded transsexual politician was New Zealander Georgina Beyer, elected as a mayor in 1995 before sitting in parliament from 1999-2007.

Transgender Italian Vladimir Luxuria -- still legally male but living wholeheartedly as a woman -- followed in 2006-2008.

"I could not be more proud of and pleased for Anna's success," Beyer told.

Grodzka ran for parliament for the new opposition Palikot Movement, led by flamboyant tycoon-turned-politician Janusz Palikot. (AFP)

Pakistan rejects US claims on border fire

 ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Friday rejected US accusations that Pakistani armed forces allow insurgents to fire on American troops across the border in Afghanistan.

"I completely reject this, this is wrong and baseless," military spokesman Major General Athar Abbas said.

US officials have reported a sharp rise in cross-border attacks against its forces in eastern Afghanistan as relations deteriorated after US forces raided Pakistan to kill the world's most wanted man, Osama bin Laden, in May.

Lieutenant General Curtis Scaparrotti, the deputy US commander in Afghanistan, said that rocket and mortar fire against his forces appears to come from within sight of Pakistani military posts.

"In some locations from time to time you will see what just appears to us to be a collaboration... or at a minimum a looking the other way," he said.

He said that the border forces come from Pakistan's paramilitary Frontier Corps, who are locally recruited and not as highly trained as army units.

Asked about Scaparrotti's comments, Abbas said: "I told you, it is not true, all this is wrong." (AFP)

Pakistan test fires multi-tube stealth cruise missile

 RAWALPINDI: Pakistan on Friday conducted successful test fire of an indigenously developed multi-tube having stealth capabilities Cruise Missile Hatf-VII (Babur).

Babur has a target range of 700 kms, said ISPR in a news release here. The missile test was conducted to validate the design parameters of the weapon system and a new Missile Launch Vehicle (MLV).

"Babur Cruise Missile is low flying, terrain hugging missile with high maneuverability, pin-point accuracy and radar avoidance features.

"It can carry both nuclear and conventional warheads and has stealth capabilities. "It also incorporates the most modern cruise missile technology of Terrain Contour Matching (TERCOM) and Digital Scene Matching and Area Co-relation (DSMAC)."

A special feature of Friday's launch was the validation of a new multi-tube MLV during the test. The three tube MLV enhances manifold the targeting and deployment options in the conventional and nuclear modes. With its shoot-and-scoot capability, the MLV provides a major force multiplier effect for target employment and
survivability.

The test was witnessed by Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee General Khalid Shahmeem Wynne, Director General Strategic Plans Division Lieutenant General (R) Khalid Ahmed Kidwai, Commander Army Strategic Force Command, Lieutenant General Tariq Nadeem Gilani and Chairman National Engineering and Scientific Commission (NESCOM) Muhammad Irfan Burney, senior officers from the armed forces and strategic organizations, scientists and engineers.

The test will consolidate country's strategic deterrence capability and further strengthen national security.

The successful test has also been warmly appreciated by President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani who have congratulated the scientists and engineers on their outstanding success.

All set for PML-N 'Go Zardari Go' rally

 LAHORE: The PML-N is all set to launch its 'Go Zardari Go' drive and will take out its first rally (from Nasser Bagh to Bhati Chowk) in Lahore, for which a large number of party workers have gathered at Nasser Bagh.

Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif will lead the rally, which starts from the historic Nasser Bagh and concludes at the Bhati Chowk, situated in NA-119, not only a stronghold of the PML-N but also the constituency of Hamza Shahbaz.

Apart from PML-N President Nawaz Sharif, who is on a visit to Turkey , the PML-N leadership, including opposition leader Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan, Senator Raja Zafarul Haq, Senator Mushahidullah, Senator Pervaiz Rasheed, Khawaja Asif and others will attend.

The rally, which will start in the afternoon with the agenda of ousting the 'corrupt rulers', has been termed the 'end of the beginning' of the Zardari government by the PML-N leadership which believes that days of the present government were numbered.

The PML-N, which gave a call for the rally just a week ago, also directed its local organisations, MNAs and MPAs to ensure maximum participation of workers, though some believe that the absence of PML-N President Nawaz Sharif from the rally might reduce the number, which would have been higher otherwise.

All major roads of the city including The Mall, Lower Mall, Circular Road, Main Boulevard etc have been decorated by the PML-N with banners, party flags amid criticism from another emerging political force from the city, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf.

UN ends mandate for NATO military operations in Libya

UNITED NATIONS: The UN Security Council on Thursday canceled its authorization for a
seven-month-old NATO military operation in Libya that led to the ouster and death of Libyan leader Muammar Kadhafii.

The 15-nation council unanimously approved a resolution terminating the UN mandate, which set the no-fly zone over Libya and permitted foreign military forces, including NATO, to use "all necessary measures" to protect Libyan civilians.

The resolution said the U.N. authorization for foreign military operations in Libya will lapse at 11:59 p.m. local Libyan time on Oct. 31. (REUTERS)

Libya to try Kadhafi killers

BENGHAZI: Libya's new rulers said on Thursday they would prosecute the killers of ousted dictator Moamer Kadhafi following the international outcry over the circumstances of his death.

"With regards to Kadhafi, we do not wait for anybody to tell us," said Abdel Hafiz Ghoga, vice chairman of the ruling National Transitional Council at a news conference in Benghazi.

"We had already launched an investigation. We have issued a code of ethics in handling of prisoners of war. There were some violations by those who are unfortunately described as revolutionaries. I am sure that was an individual act and not an act of revolutionaries or the national army," the top interim official said.

"We had issued a statement saying that any violations of human rights will be investigated by the NTC. Whoever is responsible for that (Kadhafi's killing) will be judged and given a fair trial."

Ghoga, who spoke in Arabic and whose remarks were translated by an official interpreter, was responding to specific questions about Kadhafi's death and potential abuses.

His statement came as NATO weighed a possible new role in Libya following Kadhafi's controversial death, as France said the UN would vote on Thursday to end the alliance's mandate for an air war on October 31.

Global disquiet has grown over how Kadhafi met his end at the hands of NTC fighters who hauled him out of a culvert where he was hiding following a NATO air strike. (AFP)
