Pakistan arrests 'German militant' disguised in a burka


A suspected militant from Germany has been detained in north-west Pakistan wearing a burka, police say. They told the man was in a vehicle with two other men and a young girl when they were stopped at a check-point in Bannu district. The German was travelling with a fake Pakistani passport, officials say. Meanwhile the Taliban has offered to swap 33 soldiers captured on the Afghan border if a number of militants are in return released from Pakistani jails. They have warned the soldiers may be harmed if the government refuses.
