Taliban’s Grim Grip: Shocking Arrests of Innocents in Paktika Province
2023-10-06
[8am] Local sources in Paktika
...which coincidentally borders South Wazoo...
have reported that the Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
have detained the former principal of a school and another individual for undisclosed reasons. Nearly a month has passed since their detention, and there is no available information regarding their fate.

Sources from the province speaking to Hasht-e Subh on Wednesday, October 4th, stated that the Taliban’s intelligence apprehended Mohammad Nabi, the former principal of a public school, 25 days ago near the village of Qorbudeen in the Yayha Khel district of the province. As of now, no details have emerged about his current status or whereabouts.

Additionally, the Taliban intelligence arrested another resident of the same village named Yar Gul approximately 10 days ago. He is presently being held in the Taliban’s intelligence detention center in Yahya Khel district.

Despite persistent efforts by local tribal elders and the families of the detained individuals to seek clarification from the Taliban concerning the reasons for their detention, they have been unsuccessful in securing a meeting with the detainees. The Taliban have not provided any information about the alleged crimes of these individuals, leaving their families and the community in a state of uncertainty.

Many local residents have deemed the detention of these individuals arbitrary, contending that they have been imprisoned without cause and are likely being subjected to torture by the Taliban.
