Afghan Rogue Killings

Four Afghan policemen were killed and another seven wounded when one of their colleagues opened fire on them in the volatile southern province of Kandahar, an official said today.

A rogue policeman drugged and then shot dead 10 of his colleagues in southern Afghanistan early today, officials said, the second insider attack on police in just over a week.

The Afghan government has recommended legal action against two TV channels for allegedly broadcasting scantily dressed women and disseminating immorality, officials said on Wednesday.

The US has paid $50,000 in compensation for each villager killed and $11,000 for each person wounded in a shooting rampage allegedly carried out by a rogue American soldier in southern Afghanistan, Afghan officials say.
