According to locals in Afghanistan’s Bagrami District, on the outskirts of the capital of Kabul, a civilian bystander was killed last week when security guards loyal to a pair of MPs got into a fight.
The MPs were identified as Mohammed Sediqqi and Allah Mujahid, members
of the upper and lower houses, respectively. The two MPs are, according
to locals, engaged in a land dispute over “tens of acres of land.”
That argument quickly led to a pair of security guards, one on each
side, getting into a gunfight, and in the course of that, a villager was
shot, and ultimately died.
Both MPs feigned ignorance on the matter, saying they are unaware of any
incident having even happened, and both insisting no guards got into
any fights.
