Taliban fighters claim in a viral video that they have seized $6 million in cash and about 15 gold bricks from the residence of former Afghanistan Vice President Amrullah Saleh in Panjshir province.
Khama News reported that Saleh and the Resistance Front have yet to comment on the issue. Afghanistan’s ambassador to Tajikistan, Mohammad Zahir Agbar, claimed that President Ashraf Ghani “took with him $169 million” while fleeing Afghanistan.
He said Ghani should be arrested and the assets of the Afghan nation restored, Ojodi reported.
Speaking at a news conference in Dushanbe, Agbar called Ghani’s escape a “betrayal to the state and the nation” and claimed that he had “taken $169 million with him”.
