KABUL, Afghanistan (July 23) - Afghan and coalition forces captured a Taliban improvised explosive device (IED) facilitator in the Behsud district of Nangarhar province last night.   The security force targeted a compound outside Jalalabad in pursuit of the facilitator and Afghan forces used a loudspeaker to call for all occupants to peacefully exit the buildings. After the occupants were interviewed, one of them led the security force to a different compound where he thought the targeted individual was residing.   Once the second compound was secure, the combined security force detained the facilitator who peacefully surrendered and identified himself to the security force.   No shots were fired and the women and children present were protected by the security force.
