PESHAWAR (AFP) – Pakistani Taliban militants released a graphic video Sunday showing the beheading of a Polish engineer whom they said was killed because Islamabad refused to free detained insurgents.
The tape, seen by an AFP correspondent here, was released one day after a spokesman for Pakistan's umbrella Taliban group said its men had decapitated Piotr Stanczak, who was seized in the volatile northwest on September 28.
Pakistan has seen a number of kidnappings of foreign nationals in recent months, many of them in the northwest, where Taliban and Al-Qaeda militants have been holed up since the US-led invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001.

This is the price that Poland pays for sending troops to Afghanistan, as well as not allowing the release of Taliban freedom fighters that were caught and put in prison without any evidence of their involvement in this so called War on Terror. No doubt I blame on this on the U.S. govt. as well since they anger the Taliban for firing missiles which does nothing but anger them more.
