KANDAHAR, Afghanistan - A key Taliban commander in southern Afghanistan has been dismissed for disobeying the militant group's rules, a Taliban spokesman said Saturday.
Mansoor Dadullah was "disobeying orders" and conducting activities "against the Taliban's rules and regulations," said Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid. He did not provide any details.
"For this reason Mullah Mansoor Dadullah is no longer in the Taliban and no longer a Taliban commander," Mujahid said in a statement he attributed to Taliban leader Mullah Omar.
Dadullah rose in the militia's ranks as a key commander in southern Afghanistan after his brother, Mullah Dadullah, was killed during a military operation last May in Helmand province. Mullah Dadullah was the highest-ranking Taliban commander killed since the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.
Mansoor Dadullah could not be reached for comment.
Mujahid said Taliban sympathizers who had been providing help to Mansoor Dadullah should stop.

Wasn't there a scene in F-Troop when they removed someones stripes and break his sword.....the Taliban just did the same thing. That was Chuck Conners, in "Branded".
Branded! Cursed with a coward's shame.
What do you do when your branded, and you fight for your name?
Branded! Scorned as the one who ran.
What do you do when you're branded, and you know you're a man?
Whereever you go for the rest of your life,
you must prove...you're a man!
Funny, the useless stuff you remember.

“conducting activities “against the Taliban’s rules and regulations,”
