Utmost poverty, former Afghan policeman commits suicide
[KhaamaPress] A former Afghan policeman commits suicide in eastern Kunar province
... which is right down the road from Chitral. Kunar is Haqqani country.....
after he was left without a job and the previous government did not pay his three months’ salary.

As per the report of TOLOnews- A local news channel-, Shaaker was a 16-year policeman and had 38 years of age who did away with himself on Thursday, September 23.

Shaaker had two wives and seven children along with his mother and siblings who were all financially supported by him.

The former policeman did away with himself after he did not find any job and remain without any financial resources to feed his family members.
This is all Trump's fault, I'm sure
It is worth mentioning that, nearly ten cases of such have been witnessed in different provinces and Kabul since the Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
takeover.

The change in regime left nearly 300 thousand security forces members jobless and over one million civil servants all of who have an average of 7 people in their families.

People have been asking the Taliban to get settled and pave the ground for financial activities and jobs so that they can survive.

In the meantime, the people and world have been calling on the international community to help avert the looming humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan and have been asking the US to release billions of dollars frozen by the country.
No.

#3 Too bad he thought his American provided paycheck wasn't worth fighting for.

Shaaker had two wives and seven children along with his mother and siblings who were all financially supported by him.

He didn't think his 2 families were worth fighting for either.

#5 As I was going to St. Ives
I met a man with seven wives,
And as I passed him coming back,
Above his head I read this plaque:
"Here lies the man with seven wives.
We should have hidden all the knives."
