Afghan Taliban chiefs held in Pakistan

Two senior members of the Afghan Taliban are reported to have been seized in Pakistan.



Media reports say Mullah Abdul Salam and Mullah Mir Mohammad are thought to be the shadow governors of the northern Afghan provinces of Kunduz and Baghlan.



However,there are conflicting reports over exactly where in Pakistan they were apprehended.



The two men are reported to have been picked up about two weeks ago.



There is little clarity over the circumstances of the reported arrests.



Meanwhile, a Taliban spokesman has denied the reports and has accused Nato of spreading propaganda to undermine Taliban morale.
