KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) Afghan officials said negotiations neared a breakthrough Thursday on final terms of surrender for deposed Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar and 1,500 of his fighters. U.S. officials were adamant that no deal had been offered to the second most wanted man after Osama bin Laden. The governor of the southern city of Kandahar, Gul Agha, said Omar, accompanied by about 1,500 Taliban fighters, has been talking with a grand council of tribal leaders. U.S. officials have expressed doubts that Omar planned to give himself up.
