Pakistanis begin hunt for al-Qaida supporters
In WANA near the Afghan border a 2000 strong local militia swept mud-brick villages vowing to root out al Qaeda supporters and hand them to the government. The force moved into South Waziristan, a region rocked by a military operation last month that killed over 120 people. The campaign follows government threats of tougher measures as militants hide in semiautonomous areas once outside central control. Osama bin Laden and Ayman al Zawahri are suspected to be in the region.
