Mohammad Ashan, a mid-level Taliban commander in Paktika province, strolled toward a police checkpoint in the district of Sar Howza with a wanted poster bearing his own face. He demanded the finder�s fee referenced on the poster: $100.
When U.S. troops went to confirm that Ashan had in fact come forward to claim the finder's fee, they were initially incredulous. �We asked him, �Is this you?' Mohammad Ashan answered with an incredible amount of enthusiasm, �Yes, yes, that's me! Can I get my award now?'� recalled SPC Matthew Baker. A biometric scan confirmed that the man in Afghan custody was the insurgent they had been looking for. �This guy is the Taliban equivalent of the "Home Alone� burglars,� one U.S. official said.
