Abdul Hakim Noorzai, deputy of the national security council in former government, returned to Kabul on Thursday after negotiations with the Taliban’s Commission of Liaison and Repatriation of Afghan Personalities.
Noorzai, founder of ‘Hezb Tahrik Mardomi’ party, had resigned from his position in 2018 due to allegations of corruption. He thanked the Taliban’s commission for providing ground for return of Afghan politicians.
According to the Taliban’s commission, at least 100 Afghan figures have returned to the country till now, including former member of senate and council of scholars, Mawlawi Abdul Khaibar Chechaka. However, what is interesting to note is that some of the returnees, Farooq Wardak, former minister of education, Sediq Chakari, former minister of Hajj and Amanullah Ghaleb, former head of Breshna company, like Noorzai, have been accused of administrative corruption and embezzlement of millions of dollars.
The Taliban Commission of Liaison and Repatriation of Afghan Personalities had been formed under the supervision of Sheikh Shahabuddin Delawar, the Taliban’s acting minister of mines and petroleum, to help Afghans return to their country.
