Gunfire unleashed
at facility formerly
used by American
officials in 2001
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP)
- A building used by the CIA in
Kabul came under attack Sunday,
U.S. and Afghan officials said, the
latest in a series of attacks in the
Afghan capital.
Afghan authorities said gun-
fire was heard in the evening near
the Ariana Hotel, a building that
former U.S. intelligence officials
said was the CIA station in Kabul.
The CIA occupied the heavily
secured building just blocks from
the Afghan presidential palace in
late 2001 after the U.S.-led inva-
sion that toppled the Taliban.
There was no immediate word
on casualties.
A U.S. official confirmed there
was an attack on a facility used by
American officials in Kabul.
"The situation is fluid, and the
investigation is ongoing," the offi-
cial said, speaking on condition of
anonymity because of the sensi-
tivity of the situation.
Officials at the U.S.-led coali-
tion headquarters nearby said
they heardthe gunfire, but did not
have details about the incident.
All the officials in Afghanistan
spoke on condition of anonymity
because they were not authorized
to speak to the media.
The attack came two weeks
after militants fired rocket-pro-
pelled grenades and assault rifles
at the U.S. Embassy, NATO head-
quarters and other buildings, kill-
ing seven Afghans. No embassy or
NATO staff members were hurt
in the 22-hour assault, but accu-
sations over who was responsible
have plunged U.S. relations with
Pakistan to new lows.
The top U.S. military officer,
Adm. Mike Mullen, last week
accused Pakistan's Inter-Services
Intelligence agency of supporting
insurgents in planning and exe-
cuting the Sept. 13 attack as well
as a truck bomb days earlier that
wounded 77 American troops.
The insurgents, from the
Haqqani network, are affiliated
with the Taliban and al-Qaida.
The group primarily operates in
eastern Afghanistan and is often
blamed for attacks in Kabul.
Senior Pakistani officials have
lashed out against the allegations
of support for the Haqqani net-
work, accusing the U.S. of trying
to make Pakistan a scapegoat for
its troubled war in Afghanistan.
Pakistan also is receiving criti-
cism from Afghanistan.
Afghan defense officials
warned Pakistan on Sunday to
stop firing rockets and heavy
artillery into the northeast of
the country or the military will
respond with force. Pakistan
denied it was responsible.
In its strongest condemnation
to date, the Afghan Defense Min-
istry accused the Pakistani army
of firing more than 300 artillery
rounds and rockets into Kunar
and Nuristan provinces during
the past five days.
The area is a haven for hard-
core insurgent groups fighting in
both Pakistan and Afghanistan.
U.S.-led coalition forces have a
light footprint in the area and
the cross-border fighting high-
lights NATO's struggles to pacify
the remote region. It also under-
scores the lack of cooperation
between Afghanistan and Paki-
stan against their common foes.
The ministry said an unknown
number of Afghan civilians have
been killed by the shelling coming
from Pakistani territory. Several
houses and mosques have been
destroyed and hundreds of people
have been displaced from their
homes, the ministry said.
"Once again, the Pakistani
army started firing heavy artil-
lery and rockets over innocent
Afghan people from the other
side of the Durand Line," the
statement said, referring to the
disputed 19th century demarca-
tion between Afghanistan and
Pakistan.
Pakistan army spokesman Maj.
Gen. Athar Abbas said he had
asked security officials in the area
of the reported shelling about the
allegations and was waiting for a
reply. He said those officials were
surprised by the accusations
since no activity had been report-
ed in the area.

annual general conference in
November. The party's leader
automatically becomes the
prime minister.
The announcement was made
in a brief statement credited to
Golding and the party. It said
Golding informed its central
executive committee of his
decision at a quarterly meeting
in the capital of Kingston. The
63-year-old Golding is a veteran
lawmaker who was expected to
lead his party into the 2012 gen-
eral elections.
"(Golding) said the chal-
lenges of the last four years
have taken their toll and it was
appropriate now to make way
for new leadership to continue
the programmes of economic
recovery and transformation
while mobilizing the party
for victory in the next general
elections," the statement said.
Dennis Meadows, a senator
and member of the Jamaica
Labor Party's executive com-
mittee, said there has been
an "overwhelming response"
for Golding to stay on as party
leader.
"He feels the chances of
the party winning the next
elections are at a disadvan-
tage with him at the head, but
there's no questioning of his
competence," Meadows said.
Later in the day, party
chairman Mike Henry said
the central executive voted
to reject Golding's decision to
resign as party leader. Howev-
er, Information Minister Daryl
Vaz said on local radio that the
decision about the prime min-
ister's upcoming resignation
was final.
Education Minister Andrew
Holness, also from the Labor
Party, dominated a poll con-
ducted earlier this year asking
islanders who should lead the
Caribbean country if Golding
were to step down.
Golding's career has been in
jeopardy since 2009 because
of his handling of the extradi-
tion of Jamaican drug kingpin
Christopher "Dudus" Coke to
the United States. Critics have
slammed Golding for allowing
the contracting of a law firm
to lobby Washington to drop
their request for extradition.
Golding resisted Coke's
extradition for nine months,
arguing the U.S. indictment
on gun and drug trafficking
charges relied on illegal wire-
tap evidence. Golding's Parlia-
ment district included Coke's
West Kingston slum strong-
hold.
The stance strained rela-
tions with Washington, which
questioned Jamaica's reliabili-
ty as an ally in the fight against
drug trafficking.
When Golding finally agreed
to send Coke to the U.S., a hunt
for the fugitive led to days of
fighting in May 2010 that killed
at least 73 civilians and three
security officers. Coke was cap-
tured about a month later and
extradicted.
Last month, Coke pleaded
guilty to racketeering and
assault charges, admitting his
leadership of the brutal Shower
Posse gang. He is due to be sen-
tenced in December.
The Coke controversy
prompted Golding to offer his
resignation last year, but it was
rejected by his party.
Peter Phillips, a spokesman
for the main opposition People's
National Party, asserted that the
ruling party's announcement
was brought on bythe Coke saga,
one of the bloodiest episodes in
Jamaica's recent history, and the
government's inability to fix the
island's poor economy.
"I think it is reflective of the
low standing the prime min-
ister has amongst the Jamai-
can people. His credibility was
destroyed in the Christopher
Coke fiasco," Phillips said dur-
ing a Sunday phone interview.
From its national executive
council gathering in the north-
ern city of Montego Bay, the
People's National Party called
on Golding to immediately call
general elections "to resolve the
crisis of governance in the coun-
try."
Golding, the son of a suc-
cessful businessman who also
served in Parliament, returned
his party to power in 2007 after ,
18 years in opposition.
Last year, he vowed to crush
street gangs and replace their
strong-armed rule with social
programs for the poor. While
security forces have since
launched a sustained crack-
down on gangs that has resulted
in decreases in homicides and
other crimes, Jamaica's sprawl-
ingunderclass is still struggling.
Golding has repeatedly
denied any ties to Coke, and
even resigned from the Labor
Party in the mid-1990s to form
a new party that would be free
of gang links. He rejoined Labor
in 2002.
Political observers say Gold-
ing could not have been elected
to his parliament seat without
the support of Coke, the former
don of Tivoli Gardens, which
has a long-standing reputation
as a vote-rich stronghold for the
Jamaica Labor Party. Coke also
thrived under the opposition 4
People's National Party, which
led the island for nearly two
decades before Labor's 2007
win.
