PESHAWAR: The Afghan government has offered to release the ISIS Khorasan head Aslam Farooqi and hand him over to Pakistan in exchange for one or two Afghan Taliban leaders who are in Pakistan’s custody.
The offer was made by Afghanistan’s top spymaster Ahmad Zia Saraj while talking to the media in Kabul. Saraj, who is the head of the Afghan intelligence agency National Directorate of Security (NDS), didn’t identify the Afghan Taliban leaders in custody of Pakistan. Aslam Farooqi, who is also known as Abdullah Orakzai and is a Pakistani national from Orakzai tribal district, was arrested by the Afghan security forces during a raid last year.
