The leading militant group in the Pakistani region of South Waziristan has reportedly called a truce and is willing to enter into peace talks. However, not many details have been released regarding the terms of the truce.
The government has not confirmed the truce but interior Minister Hamid Nawaz said the national leadership was ready for a dialogue with the militants. Unofficial talks are underway.
The groups leader, Baitullah Mehsud, has been accused by the government of being behind the murder of Benazir Bhutto.

I wonder if the truce has anything to do with the arrest of two suspects in the murder investigation into Benazir Bhutto's death?
