MIRANSHAH: Suspected militants killed an Afghan refugee in Pakistan's North Waziristan region in the northwest on suspicion of being a spy for the United States, local intelligence officials said.

The bullet-riddled body of the man was found by the road in the Datta Khel area on Tuesday night. An ATM card from an Afghan bank and a hand-written note, stating that he was caught spying for the United States, were found beside the body.

Militants have killed hundreds of people in Pakistan's restive tribal belt on the Afghan border on suspicions of spying.
