Former Afghan Police Commander Killed in Sar-e Pol Province

The armed men attacked the former police commander on Monday in front of his house in Sayyad district.

According to sources, the attackers fled the scene after shooting the former police commander.

After the fall of the previous Afghan government, Khalidi had left Afghanistan for Iran and later returned to Afghanistan in coordination with the Taliban’s commission in charge of facilitating the return of former Afghan government officials.

There is still no information about the motive behind the killing of this former police officer, but earlier, reports had indicated revenge killings of former Afghan armed forces by the Taliban.

The Taliban have also said that the former Afghan security forces have been killed due to personal enmity and revenge killing.
