Afghanistan Central Bank (ACB) said Sunday that due to economic and financial problems in Pakistan, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has announced that Pakistani Rupees will lose value against the USD. 

ADB spokesman Aimal Hashoor said people who use Pakistani Rupees in Afghanistan may suffer heavy losses as a result and that the central bank will accept no responsibility in relation to this problem.

Shahzada Money Exchangers Union meanwhile raised concerns over the increased use of Pakistani Rupees in Afghanistan and said Pakistan recently decided to print a 10,000 Rupees banknote.

The union urged government to promote the Afghani on the local market so as to decrease the flow of Rupees in the country.
