Night with new wife may have cost Mehsud his life


It was probably his desire to spend a night with his second wife that proved fatal for Pakistani Taliban chief Baitullah Mehsud, who was killed in a US drone attack at his father-in-laws house.

35-year-old Mehsud had taken the risk of spending the night with his second wife around 1 am last Wednesday.

The Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan commander had four daughters from his first wife, but, in the tribal lands of Waziristan, it is only the birth of a boy that is greeted by rifle fire and jubilation.
