Navy removes base commander after Taliban attack

KARACHI Pakistan on Wednesday removed the commander of a naval air base which took 17 hours to quell a Taliban attack that killed 10 security officials and destroyed two US-made aircraft, officials said.

“Commodore Khalid Pervez is taking over as the base commander and his predecessor Raja Tahir will be assigned new responsibilities,” a navy spokesman, Commander Salman Ali, told AFP.

He did not say what new job the outgoing commander will hold.

“It is a routine and scheduled transfer.

The base commander was scheduled to be replaced, even if there was no attack on the facility,” he said.

“It has no link whatsoever with the inquiry of the incident.” (AFP)
