Family Of Blast Victim Call On NUG Leaders To Step Down

The family of Hussain, an electrician working for the Canadian embassy and killed in Wednesday’s truck bombing, have blasted government leaders over their inability to maintain security and said they must step down.

Hussain, is survived by his parents and two sisters, and was the main breadwinner in his family. Now, his younger sister, Razia, a teacher, is the only one in the family who is employed.

“My son usually went to work at 4pm to the Canadian embassy and returned home at 8am, but on Wednesday he did not return,” Hussain’s father, Abbas said.

Razia, the younger sister, said when she heard of the incident, she called her brother’s phone many times but he did not answer. She went to the scene of the incident to search for his body. Hours later she found it in the Emergency Hospital’s morgue.

According to Razia, she bought a coffin for her brother’s body and then took his body to their parents.

“I had promised my parents that I would bring my brother back, but instead I brought his body,” she said.

“How long should young people carry on being killed? For how long with they (NUG leaders) think only of power? Let the youths like us who have been suffering lead the country because they do not think of power,” she added.

“(President) Ashraf Ghani and (CEO Abdullah) Abdullah are you waiting to grieve the loss of your own sons? My only brother was killed and my sister, father and mother’s destiny are unknown after this,” said Maryam, the older sister.

Hussain’s relatives also called on government leaders to step down.

“I say to you cowardly leaders that you cannot do anything for Afghan people and that you should step down. People cannot stand you anymore,” Mohammad Amir, a relative of Hussain said.

“Hussain was an electrician at the Canadian embassy. He worked there from 4pm to 8am. He was on his way back home on Wednesday when he was killed in the incident,” Hussan’s uncle, Mohammad Ali said.

Hussain was 28 years old and started working at the Canadian embassy six months ago.
