The leader of the “Taliban” movement, Hebatullah Akhundzadeh, ordered the release of all “political prisoners” in Afghanistan, after his movement took control of the capital, Kabul.
The movement confirmed on its “Islamic Emirate” account on “Twitter” that this decision affects all prisons in the country, calling on all state governors, as of Thursday, to “release all political detainees (old and young) without any restrictions or conditions, and hand them over to their families.” “.
After seizing Kabul last Sunday, the Taliban vowed not to punish their former opponents and to pardon officials in the collapsed government.
This comes in conjunction with reports that Taliban militants have killed the former governor of Loker State, Qayyum Rahimi.
