Pakistan arrests Taleban wounded in Afghanistan

While we're killing them in Afghanistan, the wounded who escape back into Pakistan, are being arrested there.

ISLAMABAD: Law enforcement agencies have arrested 246 pro-Taliban Afghans in the last two months, a senior interior ministry official told Daily Times on Monday.

He said the arrests were made during the campaign launched against Taliban operatives and Afghans supporting the Taliban. So far Pakistan has handed over 57 pro-Taliban Afghans to the government of Afghanistan, he added.[...]

The official said the majority of pro-Taliban Afghans were those injured in clashes with security forces in Afghanistan. They entered Pakistan’s province of Balochistan for medical treatment, but were arrested.
