KABUL (SW) – Atta Mohammad Noor has expressed grim concerns over deteriorating security situation in the country.
The chief executive of the Jamiat-e-Islami Party of Afghanistan has warned of a second round of popular resistance if the security situation in the country does not improve. He expressed these views in Balkh province while speaking at a memorial service for Rahnavard Zaryab, a well-known Afghan writer.
He said the situation in the country was deteriorating and foreign fighters were increasingly gaining foothold in many northern provinces.
Noor added that for four years, leaders of the National Unity Government had ignored the arrival of at least twelve families of Central Asian fighters from Waziristan to Badakhshan province as the first group of displaced foreign terrorists, and since then all northern provinces are now insecure.
Addressing government leaders, he said whenever they could not manage the situation, they should let the jihadi leaders take lead and to work with the public uprising forces.
Although Noor emphasized prioritizing the peace process, he said that if anyone disrupted the process, a second popular uprising force would emerge. He also deplored the state of governance and the provision of services in the country, and charged that some figures in government had assassinated personalities and has begun prosecuting individuals under the pretext of the Security Pact program.
