| [Tolo News] According to Afghan security officials, following the arrest of an self-identified Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... front man in Afghanistan, three Taliban leaders were apprehended in Maidan Wardak province this week. The Ministry of Interior (MoI) reported laptops and other intelligence materials were confiscated when the Taliban representatives, who officials said were recruiting holy warriors, were enjugged Into the paddy wagon wit' yez! The news comes after rumors have spread that the Acting Governor of Ghazni has engaged representatives of the Islamic State terrorist group. Military commentators and politicians in the House of Representatives have expressed grave concern about the matter. "I know that our governor is not so stupid as to become a member of IS, but when someone comes right under his nose and becomes the front man for IS, it shows that the governor has been slacking in his work and must be relieved of duty and the issue must be addressed," Ghazni MP Muhammad Aref Rahmani said on Saturday. Meanwhile, ...back at the pound, the little lost dog had finished eating the rat terrier... independent analysts have been more damning, suggesting the Acting Governor of Ghazni, Musa Khan Akbar Zada, has allowed Taliban rockets to pass through Ghazni city. "Mr. Musa Khan Akbar Zada, the Acting Governor of Ghazni, has done and said things that show connections, that clearly indicate he has relations with anti-government gangs in his province," military analyst Jawid Kohistan ...a backwoods district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa distinguished by being even more rustic than is the norm among the local Pashtuns.... i told TOLOnews. "His adviser has also used government resources against the government." Experts believe that Abdul Qader Wahedi, known as Ibrahim Khurasani, acted as a front man for the Islamic State in Afghanistan. He is not thought to be in the custody of the National Directorate of Security ...the Afghan national intel agency... (NDS). Although many have alleged that the Acting Governor was cooperating with him, Mr. Zada has categorically denied the claims. "In regard to the corruption, many committees have visited Ghazni, and we have provided them with detailed six to seven pages of our work," he said. MoI officials said the Taliban spokesmen apprehended this week were found in the Nerkh district of Maidan Wardak province. The three men were active in the province for a long time and served as recruiters for the Taliban. "One of these men named Abdul Wahab, a resident of Nerkh district of Maidan Wardak province, is the brother of Mullah Abdul Salam, the commander of a group of 10 people in Maidan Wardak," MoI front man Sediq Sediqqi said. "His brother was also in charge of press related issues for the Taliban." The media and publicity arm of the Taliban, though non-violent, is considered one of the most threatening strategic aspects of the murderous Moslem group. While the Internet and spread of telecommunications technology in Afghanistan has done much good, the use of it by krazed killer groups has allowed them to reach and recruit individuals more effectively. |
