2021-01-31
I think this might be characterized as local warlord gets feisty.
[ToloNews] The Ministry of Interior Affairs (MoI) says that at least nine people were killed after their protest turned violent mostly peaceful and ended up in a clash between security forces and gunnies loyal to Alipoor, a local commander, in the Behsud district of Maidan Wardak province on Friday.

The ministry said a team has been assigned to investigate the incident.

According to the ministry, the festivities erupted after a group of people, among them "irresponsible gunnies" loyal to commander Alipoor, resisted the appointment of new police commanders in the district by holding a protest outside the police headquarters.
