in western Farah province of Afghanistan, the Ministry of Interior announced Wednesday.

A front man for the Interior Ministry Nasrat Rahimi said the Taliban leader Mullah Azizullah alias Zekriya was arrested during an operation in Farah.

Rahimi further added that Mullah Azizullah is a prominent leader of the Taliban group who was involved in major destrutive activities in Helmand
...an Afghan province populated mostly by Pashtuns, adjacent to Injun country in Pak Balochistan...
, Badghis, Herat
...a venerable old Persian-speaking city in western Afghanistan, populated mostly by Tadjiks, which is why it's not as blood-soaked as areas controlled by Pashtuns...
, Nimroz, and Farah province.

The anti-government armed Death Eaters including Taliban have not commented regarding the arrest of Mullah Azizullah so far.

Farah is among the relatively volatile provinces in West of Afghanistan. The Talibs are active in some of its remote districts and often carry out attacks against the government and security institutions.
