 Ilyas Kashmiri, one of Al Qaeda's most dangerous leaders, who was reported to have been killed in a U.S. drone attack in Pakistan's tribal belt last month, is still alive, according to a media report on Saturday.

Kashmiri is still alive and active in the border areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan, Dawn News channel quoted its sources as saying.

Security officials of the United States and Pakistan have failed to confirm the death of Kashmiri, who is blamed for several high-profile attacks in Pakistan and India, the TV channel said.

Kashmiri was thought to take his orders directly from Osama bin Laden, who was shot dead by U.S. Navy Seals in a town close to Islamabad on May 2.
