Senior Afghan police official assassinated in Kandahar city
2018-04-15
[KhaamaPress] A senior police official has been assassinated by unknown button men in Kandahar city, the picturesque provincial capital of southern Kandahar province.

According to the local officials, the incident took place at around noon time in the vicinity of the 9th police district of the city.

Sources in the governor’s office in Kandahar say the victim was the police chief of Shahr Safa district of southern Zabul province.

The sources further added that the police chief Gul Ahmad Gerani was rubbed out as he was travelling in the vicinity of the ninth police district of the city.

A security guard of Mr. Gerani was also maimed in the attack, the sources said, adding that the assailants have managed to flee the area.

No individual or group has so far grabbed credit behind the attack.

This comes as the security situation in southern Kandahar province had relatively improved during the recent months but the bad boy groups are attempting to carry out attacks in some key parts of the province during the recent weeks and months.

However,
a woman is only as old as she admits...
it is yet not clear if the attack on Mr. Gerani was carried out by the anti-government gangs or not.
