A-lah-lah-lah-lah Snackbar!.....

MIRANSHAH, Pakistan (AFP)--Taliban militants hanged and shot dead an Afghan man in a restive Pakistani tribal area bordering Afghanistan, accusing him of spying for the U.S., an official said Sunday.

The body of Ajab Khan, 35, was found in the tribal district of North Waziristan on Sunday, a local administration official told AFP.

Khan's body had bullet wounds and there was rope tied around his neck, indicating he was hanged and later shot, the official said.

A note found with Khan's body said he had been killed because he was spying for U.S. forces.

Only hung and shot? I'm surprised they didn't also set the body on fire after tearing it apart as well.
