Badghis security forces have raised concern over the sale of ammunition, belonging to security forces, to armed opposition groups in the province. 

“Don’t sell police bullets and any soldier who sells police bullets, must know that actually he sold himself and his family and anyone who sells bullets to the enemy will be prosecuted,” said Badghis’ newly appointed Police Chief General Ahmad Fahim Qaim.

Badghis security officials have also warned the Taliban they will be killed for their brutal attacks in the province.

Qaim has ordered police forces to show no mercy against opponents who indiscriminately kill soldiers and civilians.

“So far, we may not have as many problems, but know I tell you, kill them (terrorists) and if they (terrorists) fire at you, you respond ten times over,” said Qaim.

Security officials in the province claim that Taliban are equipped with national army equipment but that since changes have been brought to the provincial leadership there has been an improvement in security – especially since night operations have started.
