[ToloNews] Security forces have arrested three suspects for involvement in the Nov. 7 blast that killed three people, including former TOLOnews anchor Yama Siawash, the interior minister Massoud Andarabi said in a meeting on Sunday.

The meeting was attended by members of the joint committee of the government and the media led by Second Vice President Sarwar Danesh, his office said in a statement.

Recent attacks on journalists and civil society activists were discussed and security agencies reported on their actions for the incidents.

Danesh said the recent incidents have been shocking for the people in which known figures were targeted.

He said such incidents should not be ignored and serious measures should be taken to prevent them.

Andarabi said that a serious investigation is underway into the incident in collaboration with the National Directorate of Security
...the Afghan national intel agency...
He said that he has held meetings with Siawash’s family and the heads of some media outlets to discuss the incident.

He said that one "terrorist" was arrested in connection with the attack on Elyas Daee, a Radio Azadi news hound, who was killed in Helmand
...an Afghan province populated mostly by Pashtuns, adjacent to Injun country in Pak Balochistan...
on Nov. 12.

He said that one member of the Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
has been identified in connection with the killing of Rahmatullah Nekzad, a freelance news hound who was killed in Ghazni last week.

Andarabi said that an investigation is underway into the death of Ariana News presenter Fardin Amini.

He said that two suspects have been arrested in connection with the attack on civil society activist Freshta Kohistan
...a backwoods district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa distinguished by being even more rustic than is the norm among the local Pashtuns....

According to Andarabi, two suspects have been arrested in connection with the attack on Malala Maiwand, a news hound in Jalalabad who was killed this month.

Meanwhile,
...back at the pie fight, Bella opened her mouth at precisely the wrong moment...
