According to sources, Baacha Zada was arrested from the Chaprial area of Swat during a raid.
The arrested terrorist commander is reportedly involved in the killing of religious leader Pir Samiullah and other important personalities.
Baacha Zada also exhumed the body of Samiullah and hung it in public.
Samiullah was the first tribal leader in Swat to raise a tribal army to oppose the Taliban. He claimed to have organised more than 10,000 tribesmen to oppose the Taliban and to protect 20 villages.
The security forces in Swat claim to have conducted more than 1,300 intelligence operations in the area arresting several militants after the military onslaught in 2009.
On Saturday, Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, in a rare public appearance, visited several areas of Swat and said that every culprit (terrorist) involved in the Taliban occupation of Swat should be tried.

One out of 4 chance he will be found guilty in your court system --- shame.
Now the people of Swat will be really happy and will wish that this guy is sentenced according to the Law of the Land.
