Lahore : Afghan Taliban chief Mullah Akhtar Mansour, who is believed to have been killed in an air strike by the United States in Balochistan, was reportedly a frequent traveller and is said to have used at least two Pakistani airports for his foreign trips over the past nine years.
According to Dawn, Mansour was coming to Quetta from Taftan when his car came under the drone attack, immediately killing him and his driver.
A passport and a computerised national identity card found near the burnt car bore the name of Muhammad Wali. However, it's suspected that Mansour carried fake travel papers.
