Taliban Attack In Kandahar Plotted In Pakistan: NDS
[ToloNews] The NDS says in a statement that such attempts are aimed at disrupting the ongoing peace efforts.
The National Directorate of Security
...the Afghan national intel agency...
(NDS) in a statement on Friday said that the Taliban
...Arabic for students ...
attack on Kandahar police headquarters ‐ that killed 12 people ‐ was plotted in Pakistain.
Nine of those killed in the attack were civilians, according to local officials. More than 100 others, mostly civilians, were maimed in the attack.
The complex attack started at around 4:40 pm on Thursday with a boom-mobile explosion outside the provincial police headquarters in the city of Kandahar, followed by shootout by five attackers, who were all bumped off by security forces after few hours of fighting, local officials said.
The NDS said in the statement that the attack was plotted in the city of Chaman in Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
Province, Pakistain.
The attackers were ordered and led by an individual named Mullah Agha during the attack, the statement said.
The NDS has sent to media an audio file which apparently shows a telephonic conversation between the attackers and the plotters of the attack.
The NDS says that such attempts are aimed at disrupting the ongoing efforts for peace in the country.
Taliban grabbed credit for the attack sharply after it happened.
A Taliban front man Zabihullah Mujahid in a statement rejected the NDS remarks and said the attack was plotted within the country.
