Mujahid rejects claims alleging links between Islamic Emirate officials and Al-Qaeda
The spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, Zabihullah Mujahid, has strongly denied claims that members of the administration maintain ties with Al-Qaeda.
Responding to media reports on an ongoing analytical project mapping over 1,200 IEA officials by the Middle East Institute, Mujahid issued an audio statement and described the allegations as inaccurate. He also said they were “firmly rejected.”
He said the Islamic Emirate has no need to maintain relations with transnational groups, adding that such claims misrepresent the current situation in Afghanistan.
Mujahid also argued that reports of this nature are intended to mislead public opinion and generate negative narratives about the Islamic Emirate.
