KABUL - According to Afghanistan former NDS Chief Rehmat ullah Nabil’s political group, the government put pressure on Nabil after the former NDS chief ‘spilled the beans’ on the 2014 presidential elections during TOLOnews’ Black and White program.
In the program, Nabil claimed that printing equipment for fake ballot papers were found in houses around Wazir Akbar Khan, in Kabul city, during the run up to the 2014 elections.
He claimed the machines were found in the houses of high-ranking officials who are today part of the National Unity Government (NUG).
“Printing machines were placed in Wazir Akbar Khan area (at the homes) of people who are currently high-ranking officials in government,” Nabil said.
When Black and White host Sami Mahdi asked why he had not arrested these individuals, Nabil said:
“We reported everything to the president at the time and to the national security adviser (Dr Rangin Dadfar Spanta), to the members of the National Security Council, and Mr. (Omar) Daoudzai was the interior minister at that time, to the IEC chief (Ahmad Yousuf Nuristani) and we as the authority had to report to them but we did not have the right to interfere nor were we the decision-makers,” Nabil added.
