"For the US government to say that whoever is a threat to them will be targeted wherever they are, that is against international law," he told reporters.

US President Barack Obama said on Monday that Mansour had been killed in the drone attack, but Khan said on Tuesday that DNA tests were necessary to determine the identity of the badly charred body.

The Pentagon said separately on Monday that Mansour was engaged in plotting that posed "specific, imminent threats" to US and coalition troops in Afghanistan.

Before joining electoral politics, he said, Swaraj Abhiyan wants to establish within itself the principles of transparency, accountability and democracy.

"We do not want to repeat the mistakes we did in the case of AAP," he said, adding that people like him were taken for a ride by Kejriwal.
