In a surprising statement, Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed has said that families of the Afghan Taliban live in Pakistan, including in some areas of Islamabad. He added that they reside in various areas including Islamabad's Bara Kahu.

"Even dead bodies of some Afghan Taliban commanders arrive in Pakistan. Sometimes they also get medical assistance in Pakistan," he said while talking to anchor Saleem Safi on his show on Geo News.

He went on to say that he can foresee Prime Minister Imran Khan emerging as a great leader in times of this regional crisis.
