Traders of Afghanistan can carry a weapon now: Ministry of Interior Affairs of Afghanistan

Taliban allows traders to carry weapons for their safety. The decision came out after many traders’ complaint of their safety in the country. The Ministry of Interior Affairs of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan announced the decision.

Saeed Khostai said that the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan is committed to ensuring the security and safety of Afghan traders and investors and to resolving their problems.

It comes after the Afghan traders once armed, were disarmed and they are not allowed to have armed security guards.

Afghanistan’s all traders and investors would carry weapons and had armed security guards as there were huge threats of kidnapping, looting, and money heisting.

Following the takeover of the Taliban on August 15, all people and administrations have been disarmed and no one can carry weapons except the Taliban fighters.
