** US charges six with aiding Pakistani Taliban
Authorities in the United States have charged six people with providing financial support to the Taliban in Pakistan, US officials have said.
Three are US citizens living in Florida and three live in Pakistan, they said.
The news comes amid heightened tension in relations between Pakistan and the US following the US raid that killed al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden.
Pakistani MPs have passed a resolution condemning the raid and demanding a review of US ties.
The four-count indictment against the six people was announced by the US attorney for the Southern District of Florida and local FBI agents.
Miami FBI special agent John Gillies said: “Today terrorists have lost another funding source to use against innocent people and US interests. We will not allow this country to be used as a base for funding and recruiting terrorists.”
