slammed the leader of Hezb-e-Islami
Gulbuddin Hekmatyar... who used to be known in intelligence circles as

for his remarks against the Jihadi leaders, specifically Ahmad Shah Massoud who has been given the title of national hero.
Hekmatyar spent the war against the Soviets periodically trying to sell out Massoud.
Speaking during a meeting of the cabinet of ministers, Abdullah said the remarks by Hekmatyar regarding Jihadi leaders have roots in his ego and hatred towards the others.
Massoud wasn't the only one he sold out, naturally.
Abdulalh further added that such remarks will not affect the personality of the prominent Jihadi leaders and their fame, like Ahmad Shah Massoud and Burhanuddin Rabbani

, insisting that they were the true defenders of the country.
According to reports, Hekmatyar had accused Massoud of having links with Pakistain’s ISI and handing over of Kabul to Taliban

during the civil war.
Hekmatyar was owned by the ISI and the Pak Jamaat-e-Islami. His forces rocketed Kabul mercilessly during the "Dog Eat Dog," where he tried to grab exclusive power for himself. He so weakened the country that the Talibs were able to take over.
Hekmatyar also accused the former defense minister Bismillah Khan Mohammadi of having role in the massive corruption and questioned the appointment of around 600 army generals only from the northern Panjshir province.
I don't know about the number of generals from Pandjir Valley, but the area was the center of anti-Soviet resistance. Hek was the Pashtun face of the Muj.
This comes as the chief executive of Jamaat-e-Islami and governor of Balkh province had earlier slammed Hekmatyar for his remarks against Ahmad Shah Massoud and Panjshir, and accused him of sparking tensions and divisions among the people based on geographical locations, skin color, and the languages they speak.
He said the leader of Hezb-e-Islami is strictly following a mission hatched by the foreigners to spark tensions among the people.
