Operation Against Qaisari Over House Ownership

Documents obtained by TOLOnews reveal that the recent operation by the Afghan security forces against Nizamuddin Qaisari, the former police chief of Faryab’s Qaisar district, was over the ownership of a house where he was living along with his armed guards.

Based on the documents, the house where Qaisari was residing belonged to Farhad Azimi, a former member of Afghan parliament and one of the close aides to Atta Mohammad Noor, the former governor of Northern Balkh province and a member of the Jamiat-e-Islami party of Afghanistan.

However, a man named Mohammad Yaqoub had also claimed that he was the real owner of the house.

Abdul Rauf Bahrami, head of Balkh’s legal department, said that based on the court’s verdict, Mohammad Yaqoub was not the real owner of the house.  

According to Bahrami, last month a delegation comprised of members from various government institutions were sent to Balkh to implement the court’s verdict, however, Yaqoub was not in Balkh at the time and his wife requested a week to evacuate the house.

Mohammad Yaqoub however handed control of the house to Qaisari’s armed men instead of letting the government evict him after the end of the one week deadline.

“After completion of the deadline, when the delegation arrived in the area, they didn’t see Mohammad Yaqoub and his family members, but they did see illegal armed men living in the house,” said Bahrami.

But documents that were released by Azimi show that local officials in Balkh have called for the court’s ruling to be acted on so that Azimi can reclaim the house.

“The Appeals Court in Balkh has decided that the house is the asset of Azimi,” said Munir Ahmad Farhad, a spokesman for the Balkh governor.

But Mohammad Yaqoub and his son also came up with some documents and claimed ownership of the house.

“We were helpless, because they (Farhad Azimi) were bullying people, so we were compelled to sell the house to Qaisari,” said Zabiullah, the son of Mohammad Yaqoub.

Operation Against Qaisari Over House Ownership

The latest explanation for the combined army-airforce-police strike against Qaisari in Mazar-e-Sharif is that his men were occupying a house illegally.
