RASC News Agency: Local sources in Herat province reported on November 22nd that an unidentified group of gunmen shot and killed a man yesterday in the province. The incident took place in the village of Qasr-e-Anbia in the Gozara district. The victim, identified as Abdul Ghafar, was 33 years old. The motive behind the murder and the identities of the perpetrators remain unknown at this time. The Taliban group in Herat province has not yet commented on the incident, despite the recent increase in criminal activities, including targeted killings, across the country.
In another incident, unknown armed individuals in the Injil district of Herat province shot a tribal elder. These incidents highlight the growing concern over the rise in criminal activities, including targeted killings, armed robberies, and kidnappings, in various provinces of Afghanistan. The Taliban group has consistently claimed that such crimes have decreased in the country. However, reports from different provinces continue to shed light on these alarming events. Some Afghanistani citizens have even accused members of the Taliban group of being involved in these incidents, suggesting that they are responsible for the deaths of innocent people under various pretexts.
Furthermore, it is important to note that members of the Taliban group have previously been implicated in similar acts of violence. In Daykundi province, they forced a young student out of his car and shot him on his way back home. These incidents raise serious concerns about the security situation in Afghanistan and the ability of the government and security forces to effectively address and prevent such crimes. The authorities must take immediate action to investigate these incidents, identify the perpetrators, and bring them to justice in order to restore peace and stability in the country.
