[Khaama (Afghanistan)] A Taliban capo who was involved in major terrorist attacks has been jugged
Keep yer hands where we can see 'em, if yez please!
by the Afghan intelligence operatives in central Maidan Wardak province.

The National Directorate of Security
...the Afghan national intel agency...
(NDS) said Qari Syedullah who was also famous as Worekhmin was arrested during an operation of the intelligence operatives.
He really does look like he was beaten with the ugly stick...
A bath, a haircut, a shave, a nice suit, he'd still be ugly.
A statement by NDS said the operation was conducted in Sheikhabad village of Syedabad district.

According to NDS, Syedullah was involved in numerous terrorist attacks, including bombings, ambushes on Kabul
...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the World and didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either....
-Kandahar highway, armed attack on convoys carrying logistics for security forces.

The statement by NDS further added that the intelligence operatives also confiscated a 82mm rocket launcher, 1 Dshk heavy machine gun, 1 Ak-47 rifle with 4 magazines and one communication device set.

The Talibs group has not commented regarding the report so far.

Wardak is among the relatively volatile provinces in central Afghanistan where anti-government armed bad boy groups are actively operating in a number of its districts and often carry out insurgency activities.

The key Kabul-Kandahar highway goes through Maidan Wardak province linking capital Kabul with the southern and and southeastern provinces of the country, including Ghazni and Kandahar provinces.
