KABUL (SW) – The Taliban on Tuesday issued stern warnings that people must stay away from election related gatherings and rallies or could become potential targets.
In a social media post, the insurgents stressed the citizens must not continually fall for the ‘cunning political traps and refrain from participating in such a process where their votes do not actually hold any value’. The Taliban also called upon foreigners not to declare support for this process or commit financial resources to instead ensure the ongoing peace process in these critical moments is not ‘sabotaged’.
There has been no immediate reaction from the government. However, the Ministry of Interior has said time and again there is full readiness for holding the crucial polls. Though, the election campaigns are said to be sluggish, however, the election commission has announced it is fully prepared to hold the proposed elections.
