Pakistan Taliban Head Hakimullah Mehsud 'Open To Talks' -- BBC
Pakistani Taliban leader Hakimullah Mehsud has told the BBC he is open to "serious talks" with the government but says he has not yet been approached.
In a rare interview, he denied carrying out recent deadly attacks in public places but said he would continue to target "America and its friends".
The chief loosely controls more than 30 militant groups in the tribal areas.

They control areas in the north-west and have been blamed for a wave of suicide bombings and other attacks.
