Islamabad: Afghan Taliban is responsible this week due to the killing of comics in the south of the country, raising the specter of murder of revenge because the US and NATO put the last touch on their departure.
A video from two men slapped and misused Nazar Mohammad, better known as Khasha Zwan, was widespread on social media.
He was then killed, shot several times.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid admitted that the two men were the Taliban.
The men have been arrested and will be tried, said Mujahid.
He accused that comic, from the southern part of Kandahar Province, is also a member of the Afghan National Police and has been involved in torture and murder of the Taliban.
Mujahid said the Taliban should catch a comic and took him to the Taliban court, instead of killing him.
Kebutalan murder increases fear of revenge.
It also damaged the Taliban guarantee that there was no loss to come to the people who worked for the government, with the US military or with US organizations.
Hundreds of people were reportedly held by the Taliban in the area they controlled.
Schools have burned and reports have emerged from the limits imposed in women who are similar to those who are imposed when the last guerrillas ruled Afghanistan.
At that time, they denied women’s access to school, and banged women from work.
In a last week’s interview with the Associated Press, Taliban spokesman Suhail Shaheen said the group commander ordered not to disturb civilians, or force restrictions in the newly arrested area.
He said that when complaints of error arise they were investigated.
But Patricia Gossman of Human Rights Watch said that the murder of revenge was carried out by all parties for decades of Afghanistan.
“The 43-year-old war has a dynamic driven by revenge,” he said in an interview on Tuesday.
“Revenge for past mistakes, including terrible cruelty, carried out by one side or the other has become a mobilization factor for all the various armed forces.” For example, in 2001 when the US coalition led to overthrow the Taliban and many surrendered, hundreds were packed into the container by loyal forces to the commander of Rashid Dostum, with dozens of labels in very hot sun.
Others who return home after the defeat of Taliban are often chosen for extortion by government officials.
The report also since the emergence of US Allied War Commanders calling for American air strikes in the alleged Taliban, or the Al-Qaeda target which turned out to involve personal vendettas, not extremists.
“Every new horror is understood to bring new anger,” Gossman said.
“With no hope for other justice, this is likely to continue and every side is too blind to the fact that a sense of anger and horror in the mistake made is shared.” Fear of revenge has encouraged 18,000 Afghans who worked for the US military to submit a special immigration visa to the United States.
In Washington and in the capital NATO there was an increase in demand to evacuate Afghanistan working with the military.
The US has promised to move quickly on thousands of special visa requests.
Gossman pressed the investigation into alleged cruelty.
“The United Nations must be far more involved in investigating these cruelty, when Afghan human rights groups and internationally called for, and have occurred in other countries,” he said.
