KHAR (BAJAUR), Nov 12: About 400 activists of Tanzeem Nifaz-i-Shariat Mohammadi (TNSM), who had gone to Afghanistan last week to fight against US-led forces, returned here on Monday.

On arrival, they told newsmen that they had returned on the directives of their chief, Maulana Sufi Mohammad and local Taliban leaders, as majority of them were under-age.

They  said that after reaching Afghanistan, the  Taliban had deployed the TNSM activists on different fronts, particularly on the front of Northern Alliance.

They said the TNSM activists were fighting along with the Taliban.

They also confirmed that many TNSM activists had been killed and many others injured.
