| Assailants killed two Afghan nationals in the Qila Abdullah over a presidential election dispute, said an official on Saturday. He said that the two Afghan nationals were supporting Afghan President Hamid Karzai, who is also one of the candidates running for the elections, and had initiated a campaign for Karzai in the area. Bashir, the district administrative officer for Qila Abdullah, however, said it had not been confirmed whether it was an election or a personal dispute and law enforcing agencies were investigating the incident. Sources said the two Afghans were killed in separate incidents. Abdur Rashid, a resident of the Kandooz province in Afghanistan, was shot dead after he answered a knock on his door. Sherin was killed in a similar incident. |
