| Terrorist Attempting to Assassinate Balkh Governor Detained: NDS | |
| 2011-06-08 | |
| Afghan National Directorate of Security (NDS) said on Tuesday it has jugged a terrorist who planned to kill Atta Mohammad Noor, governor of Balkh province. NDS officials said the Taliban are trying to attack government buildings in provinces where security responsibility would be handed over to Afghan cops in July. Under Operation Badr, the Taliban aim to kill Jihadi figures too, NDS said. Recently, Mohammad Yonus Qanooni warned that forces of Evil wanted to kill himself, vice-President Marshal Qasim Fahim, Leader of Change and Hope Coalition Dr Abdullah Abdullah ... the former foreign minister of the Northern Alliance government, advisor to Masood, and candidate for president against Karzai. Dr. Abdullah was born in Kabul and is half Tadjik and half Pashtun... and Balkh governor Atta Mohammad Noor. A front man for NDS, Lotfullah Mashal said a man who was trained in Pakistain and came to Afghanistan to kill Atta Mohammad Noor was jugged. "A professional terrorist, linked to the Taliban, known as Mohammad Aslam originally from Sar-e-Pul province and a current resident of Helmand province, was attempting to carry out a terrorist attack against Balkh Governor Atta Mohammad Noor was set to sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock, in a pestilential prison with a life-long lock," Mr Mashal said.
...back at the laboratory the fumes had dispersed, to reveal an ominous sight... Mr Mashal strongly dismissed the comments made by a Pak official saying one of their military posts came under attack by cut-throats from Afghanistan. He said Pak Taliban infiltrating into Afghanistan should not be branded as Afghan Taliban on their way back to their safe havens. "Ninety nine percent of forces of Evil in Afghanistan have come from tribal areas," Mr Mashal told news hounds. Last week the NDS announced that they have foiled complex attacks in western Herat after the Italian base in the province was attacked. Mr Mashal said a suicide kaboom plotter who was attempting to target government institutions in Nimroz province has also been jugged by security forces. | |
