WANA, Pakistan, Aug 30 (Reuters) - Pro-Taliban militants in northwest Pakistan beheaded two men they accused of being U.S. spies and a boy who had been kidnapped boy was found dead in the same region, security officials said on Wednesday.
Islamist militants allied to Afghanistan's Taliban have been battling security forces on Pakistan's border with Afghanistan and trying to impose strict Islamic rule.
The beheaded bodies of the two men were found in different parts of the North Waziristan region. Notes were left with both bodies accusing them of being spies for the United States, a provincial government official said.
Many al Qaeda militants and their Taliban allies fled to the Pakistani side of the border after U.S.-led forces invaded Afghanistan in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States and ousted the Taliban.
