Former Government Army Officer Mysteriously Murdered in Kandahar
[8am] Local sources in Kandahar province report that a former government army officer has been "mysteriously" murdered in the region.

According to reports obtained by Hasht-e Subh, the victim was identified as Khalil Ahmad and was killed on the Thursday night, September 14th, in the "Ainu Mina" area of Kandahar city.

Sources indicate that Khalil Ahmad was subjected to torture before being fatally attacked with a knife.

While the precise motive and the identities of the perpetrators behind Khalil Ahmad’s murder remain unknown, sources suggest that he were tossed into the calaboose by the Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
the night before his demise and subsequently met a tragic fate.

Meanwhile,
...back at the wrecked scow, Agent 49 felt gingerly for his head. It was still there. He had been hoping differently...
Rahmatullah Andar, the spokesperson for the former government’s National Security Council, stated that the Taliban had apprehended Khalil Ahmad in the 10th district of Kandahar.

He posted on his social media platform that Khalil Ahmad, the son of Dostum
...ethnic Uzbek warlord who distinguished himself fighting the Soviets and the Taliban. The story that he had a bad guy run over with a tank is an exaggeration. It was an armored personnel carrier...
Khan, was discovered lifeless in the Jarai district of Kandahar province, with signs of knife wounds on his body, specifically a cut throat.

According to Andar, Khalil Ahmad had been residing in Aino Mina, Kandahar, and had received multiple threats from the Taliban in the 10th district.

However,
the hip bone's connected to the leg bone...
local Taliban officials have categorically denied these allegations, asserting that their forces discovered Khalil Ahmad injured in Aino Mina and promptly transported him to a hospital. Regrettably, he departed this vale of tears while undergoing treatment.

The Taliban have attributed the murder of this former government military officer to "family disputes."

It is essential to note that since the Taliban’s resurgence, numerous former government military personnel across various regions of the country have met mysterious and untimely deaths.

Human rights organizations have consistently accused the Taliban of being responsible for these killings of former government military personnel.

#1 I didn't think anybody died in Kandahar "mysteriously".
Inevitiable is more the word I would use.
