Pakistan offers big reward for Taliban informers
None
Pakistan on Saturday offered a reward for information about Taliban militants involved in planning or carrying out attacks, and promised to resettle informers in Pakistan or abroad. Authorities said on Friday they had thwarted a plot to attack parliament and a mosque in Islamabad and arrested two would-be suicide bombers.
"We will give 10 million rupees ($120,000) to anyone providing information about these terrorists," Interior Minister Rehman Malik told reporters in Islamabad. "We will make arrangements to settle the informers and their families anywhere in the country and even outside the country if there is danger that Taliban would hurt them." (Reuters)
