[Tolo News] The Lower House Lawmakers on Wednesday said that a group of 20 jacket wallahs have decided to launch offensive attacks on Afghanistan National Assembly.

A document which was sent by the Lower House of the Afghan Parliament to media indicated that the Taliban has been instructed by its leader and Pakistain's ISI Generals to target Afghan National Assembly.

According to reports, the decision of launching an attack on the National Assembly was taken few days back at a meeting attended by Taliban's Leader Mullah Mohamad Omar and Pakistain's military generals in Quetta city.

a number of Afghan Lawmakers have linked this attack plan to Taliban's newly opened political office in Qatar, saying that they never want peace and stability in Afghanistan.

"Taliban Leader Mullah Omar
... a minor Pashtun commander in the war against the Soviets who made good as leader of the Taliban. As ruler of Afghanistan, he took the title Leader of the Faithful.
