Taliban’s Tithe and Zakat Manager Killed in Faizabad, Jawzjan Province
The Taliban’s security command in Jawzjan province has announced that the manager responsible for tithe and zakat in the Faizabad district was killed by a gunshot. The incident occurred around 4 p.m. on Sunday, 14th of Jadi, on the Forty-Meter Road of the district.
According to the command, two individuals suspected of involvement in the killing were arrested inside a residential house while disguised in women’s clothing. However, no further details about the arrest procedure or the precise role of these individuals have been provided.
The Taliban security command has not yet explained the motive behind the killing or any potential background, nor have they officially disclosed the identities of the detainees. These ambiguities raise fresh questions about the transparency in handling security incidents in areas under Taliban control.
This event follows another incident on Friday night when a 24-year-old man was murdered by armed robbers in his home in Khanqah district of Jawzjan. Additionally, reports surfaced yesterday about the discovery of a child’s body in Kandahar province—incidents that highlight ongoing concerns about the security situation and protection of residents across various parts of the country.
