A car blast in Afghanistan’s Badakhshan province killed three people on Monday, including a provincial police chief, the Taliban-Run Afghan interior ministry said.
Two others were injured in the blast near Badakhshan’s police headquarters, interior ministry spokesperson, Abdul Nafi Takor, said, adding that four people had been arrested in connection with the incident.
The Taliban-run Afghan interior ministry said that provincial police chief Abdul Haq Omar’s car was bombed, killing him and three of his security guards. Reportedly, this is the first time that a Taliban commander has died in an assassination bid since the Islamist regime took control of Kabul in August last year.
