Pakistani sheltering al Qaeda says won't surrender from Reuters

Just so Pakistan doesn't fall off the radar scope.


ISLAMABAD, April 9 (Reuters) - A notorious tribesman wanted by Pakistan for harbouring foreign militants from al Qaeda and the ousted Afghan Taliban regime has said he had no plans to give himself up, a local newspaper reported on Friday.

The government has given leaders in the semi-autonomous Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) bordering Afghanistan until April 20 to hand over foreign fighters and local tribesmen sheltering them, or to come up with an alternative plan.

That should be enough time to escape alright.
