I wonder if the reporter will get to meet the "late" Mr. Rabia and come back with an interview with the man that Pakistan claimed was killed on Thursday, only to admit the body is missing.
Read the entire story, the reporter was covering the "explosion" that allegedly "killed" Al-Qaeda's Number "3".
On the other hand, perhaps the gunmen are the handiwork of Musharraf's repression apparatus, and the reporter stumbled on something that the Pakistanis don't want the world to know.
Gunmen snatch reporter in Pakistan
Monday 05 December 2005, 16:26 Makka Time, 13:26 GMT
Armed men have kidnapped a Pakistani reporter from a troubled border region where Pakistan says a leading al-Qaida commander was killed in an explosion last week.
Armed men kidnapped Hayatullah Khan on Monday as he was driving near Mir Ali town, in the North Waziristan tribal region bordering Afghanistan, his brother, Mohammad Ehsan, said.
Maqsood Hassan, the government administrator of the area, confirmed the kidnapping and said authorities were investigating.
There was no indication of why Khan had been kidnapped or whether his abduction was connected with his work as a reporter covering security issues in the region for various publications including the Nation, an English-language daily newspaper.

Haji Mohammad Siddiq, the owner of the house where the blast happened, is an uncle of the kidnapped journalist.
Siddiq denied that there were any al-Qaida fighters in the house when, he said, it was hit by missiles.
