Please note that all the Western liberals as well as Gen McCrystal and David Miliband are also suggesting a dialogue with the Taliban for a political solution in Afghanistan - does this mean that you will label them pro Taliban in your newspaper ? </span></div> </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> <div><span style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Trebuchet MS; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"> <div style="word-wrap: break-word;"><span style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Trebuchet MS; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"> <div style="word-wrap: break-word;"> </div> <div style="word-wrap: break-word;">If you are unable to provide any written evidence of Mr Khan being pro-Taliban then we expect a public apology as the article below was written to tarnish Mr Khans image. </div> <div style="word-wrap: break-word;"> </div> </span></div> </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;">Regards Rabia Zia</div> <div style="text-align: justify;">PTI UK </div>
