Nangarhar is Haqqani country.. province of Afghanistan.
According to the local government officials, the incident took place on Friday in a remote village of the restive Achin district.
The district administrative chief Esa Khan Zwak quoted has told VOA’s Afghanistan service that the two men had their heads chopped off and their dead bodies were left in an open area.
There are no further details available regarding the identities of the two men and the charges based on which the terror group’s loyalists executed them.
Zwak said efforts are underway to ascertain the identities of the two men and hand over their bodies to the families.
The latest horrific execution of the two men by ISIS loyalists comes as the Afghan forces are busy conducting counter-terrorism operations to suppress the insurgency of the Lions of Islam in some restive districts of Nangarhar.
The local officials earlier said ISIS loyalists have sustained heavy casualties during the Shaheen-25 operations which were launched weeks ago and are still being conducted in volatile districts, including Haska Mina, Achin, and Kot.

Militias have captured a string of key Libyan oil ports in the fight against eastern strongman Khalifa Haftar, sharply escalating the country’s civil war and throwing international peacemaking efforts into doubt.
Oh, there was no doubt...
The Islamist Benghazi militia struck at al-Sidra, Libya’s biggest oil port, and Ras Lanuf, its biggest refinery, overnight on Friday, forcing Haftar’s Libyan National Army to retreat.
Army spokesman Col Ahmad al-Mismari said the militias had overrun the main airfield at Ras Lanuf, with the army pulling back to avoid damage to oil facilities. He said the Benghazi defence brigades, militias originally from Benghazi who were driven out of the city by Haftar’s forces last year, attacked the ports from four directions on Friday.
Airstrikes failed to halt the drive, in which militia units entered the ports in fighting that has left at least nine dead. Renewed strikes were launched against the militias on Saturday morning, while army reinforcements massed for a counter-attack in what has become a see-saw struggle to control Libya’s vast oil wealth.
“The attackers were armed with modern tanks and a radar to neutralise our air force,” Mismari said. “But the battle is ongoing. The situation in the ‘oil crescent’ remains under control.”
Haftar’s forces seized al-Sidra and Ras Lanuf, together with nearby ports Brega and Zueitina in an offensive last September that dealt a major blow to the UN-backed Gvernment of National Accord, whose militias had controlled them.
Haftar supports Libya’s parliament, based in the eastern town of Tobruk, which opposes the GNA in Tripoli, and both sides have made gaining control of the ports their priority.
The Tripoli government denied involvement in the attack, condemning it as a “military escalation” and called for all sides to cease fighting.
Britain’s ambassador to Libya, Peter Millet, tweeted his concern that the battle may shatter the country’s oil industry. “I follow with great concern fighting in the ‘oil crescent’ which threatens Libya’s oil and the lives of civilians,” he said.
The oil ports have been the focus of months of fighting, with the Benghazi defence brigades launching offensives against them in December and February that were broken up by airstrikes.
The fighting also risks opening a divide among outside powers, with Haftar backed by neighbouring Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Russia, while the GNA has support from the United States, Britain and most European Union powers.
In recent weeks Russia has been trying to broker talks between the two governments to form a power-sharing administration with a prominent role for Haftar. The move was backed last month by the British foreign secretary, Boris Johnson, who said: “That’s the crucial question: how to make sure that Haftar is in some way integrated into the government of Libya.”
The United Nations has also been mediating a plan to restructure the GNA to incorporate Haftar, while the GNA itself is struggling in Tripoli, with its forces fighting street battles against militias from a third would-be administration, the “salvation government”, for control of the capital.
With reinforcements pouring into the oil ports fighting on Saturday, hopes of a peace deal may be vanishing. “No room for political negotiations in the near future,” tweeted Libyan analyst Mohamed Eljarh. “Today’s developments make political solutions even more difficult to achieve.”

[DeutscheWelle] Police have tossed in the calaboose more than 20 members of a holy warrior group suspected of launching attacks against security forces. The chief prosecutor said one of the group's leaders is a runaway living in Germany.
Bahrain uncovered a 54-member "terrorist organization" involved in prison breaks and attacks on security forces, reported the state-run Bahrain News Agency (BNA) on Saturday.
Police tossed in the clink You have the right to remain silent... 25 members of the holy warrior group, 10 of whom were former inmates, the report said. The remaining suspects appeared to be on the lam.
The suspects face 16 charges, including killing two coppers during a prison break, attempted murder of another police officer, sheltering holy warriors and joining a terrorist group. Prosecutors said only four of the suspects denied the charges.
Authorities said they found "large quantities of explosives, detonators and hand grenades" alongside pistols and AK-47 assault rifles.
Bahrain's chief prosecutor Ahmed al-Hammadi told BNA that several of the holy warrior group's operations had been planned from outside the country, including from Germany.
"One of the group's leaders is based in Germany, where he helped several members go to Iran and Iraq to receive training on using explosives and firearms at the Revolutionary Guard camps ahead of carrying out their terrorist crimes in Bahrain," al-Hammadi said.
In February, Bahrain executed three men found guilty of perpetrating a kaboom that led to the death of three coppers in 2014.
Bahrain's Sunni-ruling authorities have faced backlash from the Shiite-majority population after banning the main opposition group, arresting anti-government activists and revoking the citizenship of the country's Shiite spiritual leader.
Manama frequently accuses Iran of fomenting civil unrest and supporting attacks against security forces, allegations which Tehran has long denied.
...but which are nonetheless true.

[AlAhram] Italy's foreign ministry said Tuesday it had asked a prosecutor to investigate the suspected sale of European visas by officials at its consulate in the autonomous Kurdish region of Iraq.
The move followed reports that entry visas for Italy and the rest of the Schengen border-free zone that covers most of continental Europe were being sold for up to 10,000 euros ($10,600) a time to buyers deemed a security risk by other European consulates in the region's capital, Arbil. A ministry investigation identified irregularities in the visa issuing procedures at the consulate and the official in charge of the section has been replaced, the ministry said in a statement.
Italian daily Corriere della Sera reported that at least 152 visas had been issued in return for illicit payments. Around half went to Kurdish locals and the rest to other Iraqi nationals or Syrian refugees, the daily said.
[IsraelTimes] Swedish police say at least 15 people have been injured when a fire broke out overnight at one of the country’s largest refugee centers outside of Vanersborg in southwestern Sweden. Police spokesman Tommy Nyman says two people were taken to the hospital to be treated for injuries after jumping out of a second-floor window to escape the blaze and 15 people in all were treated for smoke inhalation. He said police received the alarm at 4:15 a.m. Sunday and all 158 people in the building were evacuated. Firefighters extinguished the flames.
The cause of the fire was not immediately known. Nyman said police would open an investigation.
Last year, there were 112 fires at Swedish refugee and reception centers, most of them arson.
[Ynet] German police have arrested two Syrian men, one of whom is suspected of involvement in the killing of 36 Syrian government employees in Syria in March 2013 and committing war crimes, prosecutors said on Thursday.
Abdalfatah H. A., 35, is suspected of being a member of the al Qaeda-linked Nusra Front and of carrying out a death sentence. With other members of his unit, he is believed to have killed 36 employees of the Syrian government who were protected under international law, said the prosecutors.
He was arrested in Duesseldorf in north-western Germany.
[IsraelTimes] Former French culture minister Christiane Taubira, who last month granted a wide-ranging interview to Mehdi Meklat, 24, of the Les Inrocks magazine, said she would not have afforded him that access had she known that in the years 2012-14, he wrote under a pseudonym on Twitter numerous anti-Semitic, misogynistic and homophobic messages. The tweets, which surfaced as Meklat was promoting his latest book, included reference to Jewish greed, Hitler and gas. Some were authored by Meklat on his Twitter account, while others appeared under the pseudonym Marcelin Deschamps.
The revelations have stunned France as Meklat, a native son born to a Muslim family from Northern Africa, had been widely regarded as a progressive proponent of religious and ethnic coexistence amid rising tensions among Muslims, Jews and others in France.
[IsraelTimes] A French high school student of Kurdish descent who tried to murder a Jewish teacher in Marseille was convicted and sentenced to seven years in prison, Israel Radio reported Friday. The prosecution initially sought a punishment of 10 years against the perpetrator, an ethnic Kurd from Turkey who was still a minor at the time of the attack last year.
At the time, he said he was acting in the name of Allah and that he was affiliated with the Islamic State terror organization.
According to the AFP news agency, this is the first time that a minor under the age of 18 was tried in France for a jihadist attack. The youth, whose name was not published in the media, was 15 when he attacked Amsellem and fled the scene after the victim fought him off using a Bible to shield his body from the knife.
[IsraelTimes] Center for Information and Documentation on Israel asks government to scrap Rotterdam forum titled ‘Palestinians in Europe’ scheduled April 15.

[AnNahar] Star trumpeter Ibrahim Maalouf is being investigated by French police for kissing a 14-year-old girl while she was his intern, a justice official said Friday. The incident dates from 2013 when the Franco-Lebanese musician, who has played with Sting and Elvis Costello, is alleged to have kissed the girl at the end of her internship.
Prosecutor Laure Beccuau said the inquiry centers on "sexual interference, which is different from sexual assault because it involves the consent of the minor."
Maalouf, now 36, is alleged to have sent the secondary school student a text message asking her to send him a picture of herself naked, French daily the Parisien reported.
A little different than a peck on the cheek...
Beccuau said she could not confirm this, but said Maalouf had said it was "a one-off incident that he immediately regretted" when he was questioned last year after her parents went to police. If charged and convicted, the jazz musician could face up to five years in jail and a fine of up to 75,000 euros ($79,000).

Bosnian seems possible, Bright Pebbles. A search of the name suggests it might have originally been Albanian. From the article:
Redzepagic, who lives in Commack, told authorities after his arrest that he’d become a devout Moslem while in Montenegro, in the Balkans, and believed a cousin was a battalion commander in Syria for the Islamic State or the group once known as the Nusra Front, according to the court complaint.
[Daily Excelsior] Fierce shootout is on in South Kashmire’s Tral area after security forces trapped at least three bandidosmurderous Moslems of Hizbul Mujahideen in a village while equal number of bandidosmurderous Moslems managed to flee from cordon in Shopian area last night after a brief shootout.
Security forces this evening cordoned off Oppo village in Tral area of Pulwama and launched searches. A local murderous Moslem commander, Aqib Molvi, his associates Sabzar Ahmad and a foreigner Hammas Bhai are believed to be trapped inside a house.
Security forces blasted off a portion of the house but the intermittent firing was going on. Sources said that Aqib Molvi made a phone call to his family and informed them that he has been trapped in the village.
Massive festivities erupted in Oppo village soon after security forces launched a search and cordon operation following an input about the presence of murderous Moslems.
Clashes also erupted at Tral Town after news about trapping of bandidosmurderous Moslems spread. As the searches were underway, locals came out of their houses and resorted to heavy stone-pelting to disrupt the operation against bandidosmurderous Moslems suspected to be present in the village.
However, those who apply themselves too closely to little things often become incapable of great things... the operation was on in the village when reports last came and additional contingents of security forces were brought in to tighten the cordon.
Security forces have also imposed curfew in the area to prevent bandidosmurderous Moslems from fleeing the area.
The protesters pelted stones on police and CRPF during which they snatched an INSAS rifle from a CRPF officer, Sub Inspector Harjinder Singh, in Main Town of Tral near Jama Masjid.
At least three bandidosmurderous Moslems who were trapped by security forces in Chillipora village of Shopian district in South Kashmire since last night escaped after a brief shootout.
Security forces launched search operation after receiving input about the presence of three bandidosmurderous Moslems of Hizbul Mujahideeen including Saddam and Irfan in Chillipora. As the searches were started, the bandidosmurderous Moslems fired upon the security forces, leading to a shootout. The exchange of fire continued till late last night but under the cover of darkness, the bandidosmurderous Moslems beat feet from the village.
The locals had come out of their houses and pelted stones on security forces. The operation that was put on hold late night was resumed this morning but there was no fresh firing after which the operation was called off.
Due to massive stone-pelting, an armoured vehicle of 14 Battalion of CRPF skidded off the road and overturned, resulting in injuries to 11 CRPF men. Amid heavy stone-pelting on overturned vehicle, security forces opened fire and also used pellets to control the stone-throwers, resulting in injuries to three protesters. One protester identified as Inayat Ahmad was hit by a bullet in his hand and he was referred to Bone and Joints Hospital Srinagar.
The festivities in the area continued throughout the day intermittently and several other youths sustained minor injuries. Police used teargas shells to disperse the protesters. The situation remained tense in Heff and Chillipora throughout the day.

The U.N.’s World Health Organization has activated with partners and local health authorities "an emergency response plan to safely treat men, women and kiddies who may be exposed to the highly toxic chemical," the agency said in a statement.
It said all 12 patients had been received since March 1 for treatment which they are undergoing in Erbil, the capital of Iraq’s Kurdish region, east of Mosul.
Four of them are showing "severe signs associated with exposure to a blister agent". The patients were exposed to the chemical agents in the eastern side of Mosul.
The International Committee of the Red Thingy (ICRC) said on Friday that five children and two women were receiving treatment for exposure to chemical agents.
The ICRC statement did not say which side used the chemical agents that caused blisters, redness in the eyes, irritation, vomiting and coughing.
Iraqi forces captured the eastern side of Mosul in January after 100 days of fighting and launched their attack on the districts that lie west of the Tigris river on Feb. 19. The eastern side remains within reach of the holy warriors’ rockets and mortar shells.

[SCMP] Jordan hanged 15 death row prisoners at dawn on Saturday, its information minister said, in a further break with the moratorium on executions it had observed between 2006 and 2014.
Ten of those put to death had been convicted of terrorism offences and five of "heinous" crimes, Mahmud al-Momani told the official Petra news agency.
Those executed included one man who was convicted of an attack last year on an intelligence compound that killed five security personnel, al Momani said. Another five were involved in an assault by security forces on a myrmidon hideout in Irbid city in the same year that led to the death of seven faceless myrmidons and one police officer, while the rest related to separate incidents that go back as far as 2003.
A judicial source said the authorities also executed a gunman who last year rubbed out outside a court a Christian writer who was standing trial for contempt of religion after sharing on social media a caricature insulting Islam. Also among the 10 was a gunman convicted of firing at a group of Western tourists near the Roman amphitheatre in downtown Amman in 2006, killing one Briton and injuring five other people, the judicial source added.
The five other executions were for rape and sexual assault.
All were Jordanians and they were hanged in Suaga prison south of the capital Amman.
King Abdullah had said in 2005 that Jordan aimed to become the first Middle Eastern country to halt executions in line with most European countries.
Courts continued to hand down death sentences but they were not carried out.
But public opinion blamed a rise in crime on the policy and in December 2014 Jordan hanged 11 men convicted of murder, drawing criticism from human rights ...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... groups. Opinion hardened after the murder by Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems.... (IS) of captured Jordanian pilot Maaz al-Kassasbeh whose plane had crashed in a jihadist-held region of Syria in December 2014 while serving with a US-led coalition.
Grisly footage posted in February the following year of him being burnt alive in a cage outraged the public. Swiftly afterwards, Jordan hanged two people convicted of terrorism offences, one of them Sajida al-Rishawi. She had taken part in a 2005 suicide kaboom on luxury hotels in Amman organised by IS’s forebear, al-Qaeda in Iraq, but her explosives failed to detonate.

The man, said by police to be in his 20s, was arrested at a Border Police checkpoint leading to the site after officers found a knife in one of his pockets.

[AFP] The Philippine military said on Sunday it had recovered the body of the elderly German hostage who was beheaded by the Abu Sayyaf militants last week.
Military officials said marines found Kantner's body on Saturday evening on the militants' remote island stronghold of Sulu, more than 600 miles south of Manila. Military spokesman Edgard Arevalo said,

[ARA] The Kurdish National Council (KNC) on Friday accused the Kurdish youth group Ciwanen Soresger of burning the Yekiti party building in Qamishi city, in northeastern Syria. I'm guessing this is inspired and financed by Turkey.
The Asayish security forces of the local administration said they have tossed in the calaboose Please don't kill me! the perpetrators and will protect KNC offices.
The tensions follow festivities between the Rojava Peshmerga ‐affiliated to the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP)‐ and the Sinjar Resistance Units (YBS) ‐affiliated to the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK)‐ in the Yezidi region of Sinjar in which several were killed.
The youth group Ciwanen Soresger is seen as close to the Democratic Union Party in Syria (PYD) and previously was also accused of burning down the ARTA FM radio station in the town of Amude in April 2016. However, nothing needs reforming like other people's bad habits... at that time the Kurdish security police announced that the perpetrators were arrested and officials said they received prison sentences.
Moreover, in the town of Dirbêsiyê, the KNC said that ’PYD forces’ stormed the local KNC office and took down the Kurdish flag.
However, nothing needs reforming like other people's bad habits... Fidan Hessi, spokesperson of the Asayish forces in a statement said that the security forces of the local administrations led by the PYD on Friday prevented an attack on the KNC office in Dirbêsiyê. They said that they have arrested the perpetrators who burned the Yekiti office in Qamislo.
