A former head of Afghanistan’s intelligence agency has leaked documents that he claims show Pakistan’s link to groups that carry out attacks inside Afghanistan.
Rahmatullah Nabil, who resigned last December after strongly criticizing Afghan President Ashraf Ghani’s overtures toward Pakistan on social media, said he leaked the documents because he wanted the public to be aware of the situation.
VOA cannot independently verify the authenticity of the documents.
One of the documents he has leaked is a letter allegedly sent from the headquarters of Pakistan’s intelligence agency, Inter-Services Intelligence, ISI, ordering payments to the militants or their families involved in an attack on Kabul’s airport.
Another letter, dated August 5, 2014, from an office of Military Intelligence or MI, Pakistan military’s internal intelligence agency, to its headquarters in Rawalpindi near Islamabad, supposedly informed the headquarters that concerned sections were working to arrange safe houses in the city of Peshawar for Afghan Taliban who had to leave North Waziristan due to a military operation launched by the Pakistani military in June 2014.
