ISLAMABAD: Taliban Friday denied killing more than 100 people in Spin Boldak district of Afghanistan's Kandahar province. According to TOLO news, the Afghan ministry of interior blamed the Taliban for the death of civilians in Spin Boldak, saying they were murdered for no reason.
“The brutal terrorists on the order of their bosses ambushed the homes of innocent Afghans in certain areas of Spin Boldak, looted the homes and martyred 100 innocent people. This unveils the real face of the cruel enemy,” Mirwais Stanekzai, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior, was quoted as saying.
According to the Afghan security agencies, the bodies of several civilians were still lying on the ground in Spin Boldak. “They (Taliban) even resorted to the looting of the homes of civilians and government offices including the destruction of public infrastructure,” Rohullah Ahmadzai, a spokesperson for the ministry of defence, said. “They also assassinated the civilians,” Ahmadzai added. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid, on the other hand, denied the allegations.
