In a shocking act of brutality, Taliban insurgents executed a former government military official through beheading in the Gizab district of Urozgan province, as reported by local sources.
Reliable accounts on Tuesday, January 2, detail the harrowing events of the previous night when Taliban fighters forcibly expelled the ex-government military official from his residence in the heart of Gizab district before carrying out the gruesome beheading.
The victim, identified as Mohammad Shahi, had transitioned to civilian life in the central Gizab district following the collapse of the previous government.
The distressing trend of the Taliban detaining and beheading former government military officials and employees unfortunately persists, highlighting the volatile security situation in the region.
In a separate incident just this week, on Monday, the Taliban targeted a lawyer from Panjshir province.
Despite these disturbing events, Taliban officials have remained silent, withholding any comments on the escalating violence and targeted attacks on individuals associated with the previous administration.
