Sibghatullah Arghand, brother of the slain journalist Abdulmanan Arghand, says municipal workers from the Taliban administration removed and took away a road sign bearing his brother\u2019s name overnight.<\/p>\n
He said on Sunday, 12 Mizan, that during the previous government the road had been named “Martyr Abdulmanan Arghand Road.” According to Arghand, after the road was repaired, he had reinstalled a sign with his brother\u2019s name at the site the day before the incident.<\/p>\n
Sibghatullah Arghand said municipal workers went to the location by car at night and removed the sign. He added that if putting up the sign had violated regulations, the municipality could have contacted him.<\/p>\n
Abdulmanan Arghand was killed in an armed attack in Kandahar on 5 \u062b\u0648\u0631 1397. At the time, the journalist\u2019s killing was attributed to the Taliban.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
