Taliban Fighters Suffocate and Kill Elderly Tribal Leader in Sar-e Pul
[8am] Local sources in Sar-e Pul Province have reported a disturbing incident involving Taliban

fighters, who allegedly kidnapped and suffocated an elderly tribal leader in the region. The assailants reportedly used a cloth to silence their victim.

According to the sources, Gholam Hussain, a highly respected figure from the village of Paroshan in the Balkhab district, fell victim to the Taliban members’ brutal act on the night of Wednesday night, June 21.

Confirming the incident, local Taliban officials in Sar-e Pul have announced the arrest of one of their fighters, who stands accused of the murder of Gholam Hussain.

The Taliban attributes the motive behind this heinous event to personal animosities, underscoring the deeply rooted conflicts within the region.

Sadly, this incident follows another violent mostly peaceful episode that occurred on the night of Tuesday, June 20th, when an unidentified gunman opened fire in Mirzaolang village, situated in the Sayyad district of Sar-e Pul Province.

The merciless killing of innocent civilians by Taliban fighters has regrettably become an all-too-familiar occurrence. Such acts of violence have been previously perpetrated under various pretexts by the Taliban, posing a grave threat to the lives and security of the country’s citizens.
