Taliban commander stoned to death by villagers

In a rare case of reversal of brutality, enraged villagers stoned to death a senior Taliban commander and his bodyguard after the duo shot dead a 60-year-old man in southern Afghanistan. The stoning episode happened on Sunday evening in Helmand province when two Taliban men roared up on a motorcycle to a mosque in the village of Trekh Zaber, where Yaar Mohammad and his two sons were waiting to celebrate Iftar, after breaking fast during the holy month of Ramadan.
