Efforts underway to remove Hekmatyar’s name from UN blacklist: AHPC
2016-05-04
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] Efforts are underway to remove the name of Gulbuddin Hekmatyar
... who used to be known in intelligence circles as The Most Evil Man in the World but who now seems merely run-of-the-mill evil...
from the blacklist of the United Nations
...boodling on the grand scale...
Security Council, the Afghan High Peace Council (AHPC) officials have said.

According to the officials, the high peace council has reached to an agreement on 20 out of 25 proposed conditions of Hezb-e-Islami for joining grinding of the peace processor.

Deputy AHPC Chief Mawlavi Ata-ur-Rehman Salim has said only President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani
...former chancellor of Kabul University, now president of Afghanistan. Before returning to Afghanistan in 2002 he was a scholar of political science and anthropology. He worked at the World Bank working on international development assistance. As Finance Minister of Afghanistan between July 2002 and December 2004, he led Afghanistan's attempted economic recovery until the Karzais stole all the money. ..
has the authority to decide regarding the remaining proposed conditions of Hezb-e-Islami.

He said the government is contact with the UN Security Council to remove Hekmatyar’s name from the blacklist and President Ghani has promised to send his final decisions in this regard to high peace council soon.

The delegation of Hezb-e-Islami arrived for peace talks to capital Kabul
...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the World and didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either....
in mid March and shortly after the Quadrilateral Coordination Group (QCG) called on krazed killer groups to participate in direct peace talks with the Afghan government.

Hekmatyar is considered is a notorious warlord for his involvement in the devastating civil war and insurgency following activities following the fall of the Taliban group.

Earlier, the group was insisting on full withdrawal of the foreign forces from the country to participate in peace talks.

However,
if you can't say something nice about a person some juicy gossip will go well...
Hekmatyar stepped back from his demands for the complete withdrawal of foreign forces with an official of Hezb-e-Islami Amin Karim Hekmatyar is no longer demanding that all foreign troops leave Afghanistan.

The softening stance by Hekmatyar followed days after the representatives of the party said there will be no compromise on women’s rights if two sides agreed to strike a deal.

Earlier, it was reported that the party is seeking to become a government partner by seeking positions in civil and security institutions.
