Repatriation commission begins its work two months after formation

KABUL (SW) – The commission set up by the Islamic Emirate to repatriate former officials to Afghanistan officially began work on Sunday.

The commission is tasked with encouraging former regime officials and politicians to return to Afghanistan. The commission is headed by the acting Minister of Mines of the Islamic Emirate, Shahabuddin Delawar. In addition, the commission has several members, including two other ministers.

At the inaugural meeting of the commission, Shahabuddin Delawar, referring to the recent meetings of Afghan politicians in Turkey and their demands and suggestions, said that there was no need for further negotiations and that all should work for the Islamic Emirate and support the government.

“No one is exempt from Amir al-Mu’minin’s pardon decree, which includes all Afghans who have fought against the Islamic Emirate for the past 20 years. No talks have been held with Ashraf Ghani or anyone else and there is no need for talks”, he said, adding security has been restored across the country and national sovereignty has been restored.

“There is peace among Afghans, all that is needed is support for the system”, he said.

Earlier, the New York Times reported that in the first six months of the Islamic Emirate’s rule, nearly 500 former security forces’ member and officials were either killed or went missing, but the Islamic Emirate called this as biased.
