Qari Ahmadullah
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Qari Ahmadullah (died December 27, 2001) was an Afghan politician and the Taliban's first interior minister after Kabul, Afghanistan fell to the Islamic militia's forces in 1996.
He was also responsible for bribing anti-Taliban commanders to desert the ranks of the Afghan Northern Alliance opposition. Ahmadullah also commanded troops fighting on frontlines in the north of the country against the Northern Alliance.
According to the testimony of Abdul Haq Wasiq, before his Combatant Status Review Tribunal, Ahmadullah was the Minister of Intelligence, and the Governor of Takhar Province. Abdul Haq described Ahmadullah as an uneducated man. [1]
