The Taliban militants have executed a Mullah Imam of a mosque after he allegedly spoke against the group’s movements and rejecting their jihad as false.
According to local security officials, the Imam was executed early on Thursday morning shortly after he was abducted by the militants.
Deputy provincial police chief Karim Khrosh said the Imam was serving in Bukhari village mosque and was abducted late on Wednesday night.
He said the Imam was identified as Mullah Abdul Satar who had spoken against the Taliban group last Friday.
In the meantime, the district administrative chief Mohammad Saleh Saleh said at least two militants raided the Imam’s house late on Wednesday night and executed him around 1 km away from his residence.
Saleh said Muallah Satar was previously serving in Badghesi village mosque which is under the control of the Taliban militants and had recently shifted to Bukhari village mosque.
The Taliban militants group has not commented regarding the incident so far.
Insanity, absolute insanity. Afghanistan should first of all take military action and then negotiate.
