Al-Mersaad has received information from a reliable security source indicating that an assailant targeting foreign tourists, who sustained a hand injury, has been apprehended in the center of Bamiyan.
The individual identified as Sarwar, the son of Qanbar Ali, a resident of the Guwareh area in the center of Bamiyan and belonging to the Hazara tribe, has been apprehended as a significant suspect in the attack on foreign tourists in the center of Bamiyan.
Following the attack, he attempted to elude security forces by concealing himself, but was eventually captured. It has been reported that he sustained injuries during an armed confrontation with security forces, and a Kalashnikov rifle along with two magazines were seized from his hiding place.
Security sources further reveal that he had been under suspicion and surveillance for an extended period due to his association with an intelligence agency of a foreign country. Approximately three months ago, he was also detained by security forces for a duration of three days.
According to the aforementioned security source, there is a strong indication that the aforementioned attack was orchestrated and executed by a foreign intelligence organization known for perpetrating such acts of terrorism in the past.
It is plausible that this intelligence agency may have ulterior motives behind this particular assault.
