Afghan police officer sought over Kabul Nato killings

An Afghan police intelligence officer is being sought over the killing of two senior US Nato officers at the interior ministry in Kabul on Saturday.

Abdul Saboor, from Parwan province, was "the main suspect" and had fled the ministry following Saturday's attack, officials told the BBC.

Nato withdrew all its personnel from Afghan ministries after the shooting.
