For Immediate Release 

KABUL, Afghanistan (June 12, 2011) 
A combined Afghan and coalition security force captured a Taliban facilitator and one of his associates in Marjah district, Helmand province, yesterday. The facilitator was in charge of acquiring equipment and weapons for Taliban leaders operating in the district. He coordinated travel for injured fighters and worked closely with Taliban medical facilitators. 

The Afghan-led security force tracked the leader throughout the day to a compound. After confirming his location, the security force commenced their search. While isolating the area, an Afghan member of the force called for all occupants to exit, allowing for the security of the women and children. The force searched the area and identified the facilitator. Additionally, they discovered one of his associates. Both men were detained. No shots were fired during the operation.
