Afghanistan: Taliban execute brother of former deputy prime minister, according to family

The Taliban executed his brother Amrullah Saleh, of his former Deputy Prime Minister Afghanistan who then joined the leaders of the forces that resisted the power of the Islamist organization, in Pansir Valley, according to his nephew.

The news of the execution of Rojullah Aziz Saleh comes just days after the Taliban took control of the valley, the last province he resisted still under the new regime, Reuters reports.

“They executed my uncle,” he said Ebadullah Saleh in a message sent to the international agency. “He was killed yesterday and they do not let us bury him. “They kept saying that his body should rot.” he added.

The Urdu-language page of the Taliban intelligence service Alemarah reported that “according to information” the Rojullah Saleh was killed in clashes in Pansir.

Amrurah Saleh, the former head of Afghanistan’s intelligence service, escapes of arrest.

It is unclear exactly where it is located. The National Resistance Front of Afghanistan, which includes forces loyal to the local warlord Ahmad Massoud, declares that will continue the resistance against the Taliban, even after its fall Bazarak, the provincial capital of Pansir.
