KABUL: Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan reacted to US claims over releasing the “ISISK affiliate” who carried out a suicide attack on Kabul International Airport, killing nearly 200 people including US marines.
A spokesperson of the IEA Bilal Karimi in a series of Twitter posts, said that the release of the perpetrator of the August 26 attack is “baseless” and there is no proof for the claim.
Bilal Karimi said that the timeframe between the release of prisoners from Bagram prison and the suicide attack was too narrow and that it was not possible to plan an attack during that short time.
“The affiliates of ISIS-K were released before Taliban took control of prisons. We have eliminated or arrested back those who affiliated the terror group”.
