A videotape obtained by TOLOnews from the Kabul Bank surveillance camera shows that a suicide attacker armed with AK-47 shoots to death civilians stuck in the building.
The suicide attacker has been detained by security forces.
The suicide attacker says it was enjoyable to kill people.
“I shot numerous people. I was told people in grey are pagans and I was shooting them with joy,” the detained bomber said.
More than 40 civilians were killed and nearly 80 others were wounded on Saturday during the raid into a branch of Kabul Bank in eastern Jalalabad city.
Senior provincial security officials said majority of the victims were civilians.
Religious leaders strongly slammed the attack, calling it against Islamic ethics.
“Anyone who kills innocent people, should be punished under the Islamic rules, to be a lesson to others,” said Fazl Ahmad, an Afghan cleric.
Nangarhar Police Chief urged justice organisations to severely punish the captured suicide attacker.
“I suggest to justice organisations that such criminals should be punished in public, and people also expect this,” Ali Shah Paktiawal, Nangarhar Police Chief, told TOLOnews.
Records showed that more than 120 civilians have lost their lives in violence across the country and another 200 have been injured.
The Footage Contains Shocking Scenes.
Enough is Enough, The government of Afghanistan should hang the man infront of the people emidiatly, bofore the people do something. I don’t know why the government show simpatity to such killers. The government have all evidences against him and the blody man confessed the he was enjoying shoting civilians. There is not need for any court, he shoud be brought in public and hanged on several times, i mean he sould not be killed on the first time. I can not kill a checken but if such people are given to me i will never leave them.
Dear country men, pleaase work for your country antil such blodies are defeated. BR Haroon
