KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (AFP) - The Taliban threatened Sunday to behead an Afghan doctor and three nurses captured two months ago unless the government hands over the body of slain top commander Mullah Dadullah.

Dadullah was killed three weeks ago in the armed forces' biggest success against the extremist Taliban that launched an insurgency after being driven from government in 2001.

His position at the head of fighters in southern Afghanistan was taken by one of his brothers, Mansoor Dadullah, who issued the latest ultimatum through a spokesman.

"If the government does not give us Dadullah's body in three days, we will behead them," spokesman Shohabudin Atal said.

Prince Harry in Canada for pre-Afghanistan training: reports


Prince Harry is in training at a military base in Canada to prepare for a possible British Army deployment to Afghanistan, newspapers reported Sunday.
The 22-year-old officer, third-in-line to the throne, is at the British Army Training Unit Suffield, about 100 miles (160 kilometres) southeast of Calgary in Alberta.

The casually-dressed prince flew to Calgary from London Heathrow Airport on Wednesday, newspapers said.

"They got him in and out of there very quickly," a witness was quoted as saying in The Mail on Sunday, News of the World and the Sunday Mirror.
