PAY-BACKS ARE HELL

A reap as ye sow moment:

Armed tribesmen have killed six suspected Taliban militants in north-western Pakistan in their government-backed revenge campaign for a deadly mosque blast, police said.

Up to 3,000 villagers in Upper Dir took up arms in early June, forming a militia - known locally as a lashkar - after 38 people died in a suicide bombing at a mosque in the district. The Taliban were held responsible.
