Topics: bottega veneta outlet BANNU: Hundreds of Taliban fighters rushed to disguise themselves with new haircuts in the weeks before a Pakistani army assault, it has emerged, as refugees revealed details of life under the militants and their taste for imported luxuries.Azam Khan was one of the top barbers in Miran Shah the main town of North Waziristan until he, like nearly half a million others, fled the long-awaited offensive unleashed by the Pakistan military on the tribal area in June.He said his business boomed in the month leading up to the army assault as the militants sought to shed their distinctive long-haired, bearded look."I have trimmed the hair and beards of more than 700 local and Uzbek militants ahead of the security forces' operation," he said while cutting hair in a shop in Bannu, the town where most civilians fled.For years he cut Taliban commanders' hair to match the flowing locks of former Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) leader Hakimullah Mehsud, killed by a US drone last November, but in May a change in style was called for."The same leaders came asking for trimming their beards and hair very short, saying that they were going to foreign countries and wanted to avoid problems at Pakistani airports," Khan said.Even Uzbeks and Tajiks with little knowledge of the local language came to him, he said."Knowing little Pashto, they used to utter four words: 'mulgari (friend), machine, zero, Islamabad'," said Khan asking him to shave their beards to nothing so they could go to Islamabad.The Pakistani military launched the offensive against militants in North Waziristan tribal area on June 15, vowing to wipe out the strongholds they have used to wreak countless deadly terror attacks across the nuclear-armed state.Hikmatullah Khan, a shopkeeper in Miran Shah, said that at the same time as commanders were insisting he pay Rs300 ($3) a month "tax," their fighters were stocking up on grooming products."They were very keen to buy foreign-branded shampoos, soaps and perfumed sprays," Khan said."They had a lot of eagerness for French and Turkish perfumes, body sprays and soaps." Muhammad Zarif, a wholesale merchant in Datta Khel, near Miran Shah, said fighters would buy large quantities of British detergent and American cooking oil, much of it smuggled from a foreign country.The Pakistani military has said it will target militants "of all hue and colour" but the scant resistance troops have encountered has led many to believe the insurgents fled before the offensive, limiting its effectiveness.The army says the operation has killed nearly 400 militants and will rid North Waziristan of their bases, denying them the space to plan attacks and allowing investment to come to one of Pakistan's poorest areas.But it remains to be seen what the long-term impact of the offensive will be. Local intelligence and militant sources told AFP that up to 80 per cent of fighters fled after rumours of an army assault emerged in early May, most over the porous border into Afghanistan."It is clear that militants were aware that the offensive was coming before it started. Lots of them fled," a Western diplomat told AFP."The big question is: after the offensive, will Pakistan allow the Haqqanis and others to come back?"
