Adib Fahim steps down as deputy chief of the Afghan intelligence
2019-11-23
For those paying attention to the smaller players.
[KhaamaPress] Adib Fahim has stepped down as deputy chief of the Afghan intelligence, the National Directorate of Security
...the Afghan national intel agency...
(NDS).

Fahim published a copy of his resignation letter online which he submitted to 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...
and Chief Executive Abdullah Abdullah
...the former foreign minister of the Northern Alliance government, advisor to Masood, and candidate for president against both Karzai and Ghani. Dr. Abdullah was born in Kabul and is half Tadjik and half Pashtun. He also held the meaningless salaried sop position as CEO of Afghanistan, while Ghani was president...
on Wednesday.

He described personal issues as the main motive behind decision to step down.

Meanwhile,
...back at the dirigible, Cynthia backed into the galley, the barbecue fork held in front of her.
Jack! she called. Where the hell are you?...

Fahim said he would remain committed and strive for the realization of the ambitions of the country.

The Offices of the President and Chief Executive have not commented regarding the resignation of Mr. Fahim so far.

Adib Fahim is the eldest son of the former Afghan Vice President Mohammad Qasim Fahim who passed away in early 2014. He assumed charge as the first deputy chief of the National Directorate of Security early in June of 2015.
