Jets bombed Pakistan's most wanted Taliban commander Baitullah Mehsud's hideouts in Ladha, Waziristan.

Pakistan had offered a Rs 50 million reward for information leading to the capture of Mehsud, believed to be hiding in the South Waziristan tribal region.

Mehsud already has a five-million-dollar bounty on his head offered by the United States.

The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, led by Mehsud, is blamed for many of the suicide attacks and bombings that have killed almost 2,000 people over the last two years.
