Good evening. The security forces in Pakistan have been put on high alert | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
following a suspected US drone strike yesterday which killed the | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
Taliban leader, Hakimulla Mehsud. The Pakistani government ministers | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
say that the attack has destroyed their attempts to hold peace talks | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
with militants. Hakimulla Mehsud was killed in north-western Pakistan | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
near the border with Afghanistan. The Taliban has vowed to take | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
revenge. The security forces in the capital | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
and across the country now on high alert. Following threats from the | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
Pakistan Taliban, it will launch suicide bombings in retaliation for | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
the killing of its leader. In these rear pictures of Hakimulla Mehsud, | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
he fools around with fellow fighters. Rest and recuperation for | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
a man responsible for hundreds of attacks across Pakistan. Including | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
the shooting of a schoolgirl, Malala Yousafzai. In a BBC interview filmed | :01:18. | :01:25. | |
weeks before his death, he did indicate that he was potentially | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
interested in peace talks with the government. TRANSLATION: We leave on | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
top. But the government has taken no steps to approach us. The government | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
needs to sit with us and we will present our conditions. The news of | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
his death in the US -- in a US drone strike may be welcomed by many here | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
who have seen the suffering he has caused. There is anger that he was | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
killed just as Hope was rising that peace talks could get underway. And | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
perhaps most angry is this man. The interior Minister, who was leading | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
the government's effort to draw the Pakistan Taliban into peace talks. | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
First and foremost, the government of Pakistan does not see this drone | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
attack as an attack on an individual. But as an attack on the | :02:13. | :02:21. | |
peace process. This is the scale of the violence that people of Pakistan | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
have been facing as the Taliban has issued a relentless campaign of | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
mains and shootings. Killing and injuring thousands. The government | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
leaves that peace talks were the best way to stop this bloodshed. But | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
now the government says that the Americans have ruined the chances of | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
those talks taking place. And today, it has summoned the US ambassador to | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
protest. The government is considering the possibility of | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
blocking the routes through Pakistan used by NATO to send fuel and other | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
goods to its forces inside neighbouring Afghanistan. This is | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
one of the men now being discussed by the Pakistan Taliban as a | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
potential new leader. He is thought to be less hardline than Hakimulla | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
Mehsud. But the death of Hakimulla Mehsud is a big blow for the | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
militant movement and right now, they are unlikely to be interested | :03:20. | :03:31. | |
in talking about peace. Our world affairs correspondent, | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
Rajesh Mirchandani, is with us. We saw a furious response from the | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
Pakistani government. Where does this leave peace talks? He described | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
it as sabotage, a derailing of the peace process. The timing could not | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
be worse. Governorate officials were due to fly today to meet with | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
Taliban leaders. Taliban leaders had gathered and it seemed that all | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
sides had bought into this process. And on the ease of the -- and on the | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
evil of the negotiation beginning, a drones strike takes out a major | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
player. Make no mistake, the Pakistanis are probably very | :04:06. | :04:07. | |
relieved that Hakimulla Mehsud is dead because they thought he was a | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
vicious killer, but the drone strikes are a major bone of | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
contention and for it to happen this way and right now is a slap in the | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
face. Can the peace process be revived? Now it is out of the Prime | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
Minister's hands and in the hands of whoever succeeds Hakimulla Mehsud. | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
Within the past half hour, the Ministry of Justice has confirmed | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
that there is an ongoing incident involving a number of inmates in | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
Mainstone -- Maidstone Prison. Officials say that resources have | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
been deployed to deal with the disturbance. Maidstone is a category | :04:41. | :04:45. | |

shift here at Domino's pizza. He had secured a new job and this was his | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
last night on the delivery rotor. He had been feeling unwell and might | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
have gone home early. But he decided to accept one final comment. | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
Colleagues found him later in his car. He had been stabbed to death. | :05:36. | :05:43. | |

England was taking chances. Chris Brunt short to the vantage of a | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
