A senior leader of the Afghan Taliban has reportedly been detained in Pakistan, US media reports say.

Mullah Abdul Kabir is widely believed to be a senior member of the Quetta Shura, the Taliban leadership council allegedly based in Pakistan.

He was reported to have been picked up in the city of Nowshera in Pakistan's North West Frontier Province.

But local police and a spokesman for Pakistan's army chief told the BBC that no such arrest had taken place.

Mullah Abdul Kabir is said to have been arrested last week, unnamed Pakistani intelligence officials told US media.

He was the governor of eastern Nangarhar Province during the Taliban government. But Taliban spokesmen have denied the arrest.
