(Last Updated On: April 12, 2021)
Police have discovered the bodies of two men who were “brutally killed” in northern Baghlan province on Monday, sources said.
According to sources the bodies were of two cousins and were found at the Khwaja Alwan area in the provincial capital Pul-e-Khumri.
The men were identified as Yousuf Khpalwak and Yaar Mohammad, who went missing two days ago.
So far it is not clear if the incident is crime related or an act of terror.
Baghlan police, however, stated that the Taliban are involved in the incident.
Taliban spokesman, Zabihullah Mujahid, denied this claim and said the group’s fighters have nothing to do with the incident, adding, “initial reports indicate that they were killed over personal disputes.”
