Update: Taliban is denying.
Is Mullah Omar Dead?
Just over a year ago, we broke the exclusive story that Mullah Omar had been taken into custody by the Pakistani Directorate for Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). We also predicted that Mullah Omar would never be seen alive again.
Today, news outlets are reporting Afghan intelligence claims that the Pakistani ISI has killed Mullah Omar.
Are these reports accurate, or is this some sort of a disinformation campaign, launched by the ISI, in order to make Pakistan look like it is cracking down on terrorists who heretofore have been given safe haven in Pakistan?
More as this story develops.
