TOLOnews has seen full version of a secret Nato report showing that Taliban are trying to regroup and are preparing to take over Afghanistan after complete withdrawal of foreign troops.

Parts of the report were recently published by British media.

The 27-page report has been done after interrogating 4,000 Taliban and al-Qaeda inmates.

The report shows that even though Taliban have suffered severely in 2011, their strength, motivation, funding and tactical proficiency remains intact.

More people, even members of the Afghan government, were interested to join Taliban, the report added.

Taliban have limited acts of brutality while their commanders coordinate with the village elders to determine the correct placements of mines and IEDs.

The report also indicates that Taliban militants are spread across the country while al-Qaeda and Haqqani Networks are present in eastern and central provinces of the country.

About the Afghan constitution, Taliban believe that it's a "perplexing and contradicting" document designed to centralise the government in Kabul rather than promoting Islamic values.

The report expresses that Pakistan has a vital role in the conflicts in Afghanistan while it strongly opposes President Karzai's government because its mostly influenced by India and the West.

Senior Taliban members regularly meet with ISI officials, according to the revealed report.

As far as the Haqqani Network is concerned, its based in Miran Shah area of Pakistan and gets directions from Quetta Shura .

Jalaludin Haqqani is still alive and living in the border region, while Sarajuddin Haqqani remains the top leader of Network despite living in hidings.

According to reports, Taliban commanders receive $50,000 to 200,000 a year depending on their level of operation.

The report shows that the Taliban need between $100m to $150m a year to operate.

Regarding relations of Taliban, the report reveals that Taliban are still in contact with al-Qaeda and Farsi speaking fighters of Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. Iran is also directly supporting the Taliban elements in Afghanistan, the report added.

Taliban realise that they cannot compete with Isaf troops in the country as they lose more and more fighters in the battlefield.

The report also says that there are possibilities of escalation of fighting after foreign combat troop pull out of the country.

In conclusion, the report reveals that ISI has full control over Taliban's activities and whereabouts of their senior leaders.

The detainees have revealed that support, recruitment and donations within Taliban have increased and the leaders control of activities have remained high.

Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan has been declared a free zone as any Taliban commander can conduct operations without prior coordination and permission from their leaders.

Narcotics is considered to be another donation for Taliban's activities in the country as they are more involved in trade of hashish and opium other than farming.

Once Isaf is no longer a factor the Taliban consider victory inevitable, the report says.
