A Pakistani tribesman is seeking 500 million dollars in compensation from the CIA after his son and brother were killed in America's covert drone war against Al-Qaeda, his lawyer said Monday.

Kareem Khan from North Waziristan, the district on the Afghan border where the US campaign has stepped up in recent months, said his house was hit by US missiles on December 31, 2009.

"That drone attack killed my son, my brother and a local man. We are not terrorists, we are common citizens," he told a news conference.

Pakistani intelligence officials said at the time that four militants were killed in the US missile strike in the Mir Ali area.

"We need justice. We are innocent people," Khan said Monday.
