New Delhi: Photos of the former Minister of Communications and Technology of Afghanistan have surfaced. Former minister Syed Ahmed Shah Sadat has taken refuge in the German city of Leipzig, where Sadat has been working as a pizza delivery professional for the past two months.
He came to Germany in December 2020 after stepping down as a minister due to differences with former President Ashraf Ghani. He had joined Ghani’s cabinet in 2018.

Sadat holds two master’s degrees in communication and electronic engineering from Oxford University. He worked for 23 years in the field of communications with over 20 companies in 13 countries, including Saudi Arabia, for Aramco and Saudi Telecom Company. Despite this, he now works as a pizza delivery professional.
According to Sky News, after running out of money, started working as a food delivery professional for the German company Livrando.
Syed Ahmed Shah Sadat while talking to a news agency said that in the initial days I was not getting any work to live in this city because I do not know German language. Right now I’m working as a pizza deliverer just to learn German. Through this job, I am visiting different parts of the city and meeting people so that I can improve myself and get another job in the coming days.
As the Taliban took over Afghanistan, many ministers and VIPs fled the country, including former President Ashraf Ghani, who left the day after the Taliban captured Kabul.
Sadat told Sky News that he did not expect the civilian government to fall so quickly.
