A senior executive of the UN, Kai Eide suggested removal of some top Taliban commanders names from the UN terrorist wanted list to pave the way for a breakthrough in Afghanistan. The senior official in Afghanistan said, the time has come to do it. He also suggested that an expeditious review of the detainees being held at the Bagram American military prison be undertaken to see if any of the prisoners could be released. While, calling for deletion of names of some prominent Taliban commanders from the ban list, Eide was quoted by the New York Times as saying that such an amnesty should not be extended to the topmost commander like Afghan Taliban chief Mulla Omar, whom he described as a shield for al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden. The comments by the NATO and the UN chief made in interviews to media come in the run up to a crucial meeting on the future of Afghanistan to be held in London on Wednesday.
