Shawwāl  10, 1432 A.H, Friday, September 09, 2011

In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

Last Saturday, the Islamic Emirate set free four Turkish prisoner engineers on the basis of Islamic sympathy and in honor of the auspicious occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr. Though the Islamic Emirate has warned all local and foreign companies many times, that their interaction, in whatsoever capacity it may be with the Puppet Karzai Government, is understood as cooperation with the invading Americans and their Allies in the task of occupation of Afghanistan and, any party that is found assisting the invaders in the occupation of Afghanistan, is legally prosecuted by the Islamic Emirate.

Notwithstanding that, some entities and parties are ignoring the warnings of the Islamic Emirate and continue their cooperation and assistance with the invaders, in order to gain their political and economical interests. Ultimately, they are captured and detained by Mujahideen because of their violation of the warnings.

On 6.12.2010, Mujahideen captured four Turkish engineers in Pathan district of Paktya province, while they were defying the Islamic Emirate’s warnings by working for a Turkish company involved in construction of outposts for the so-called national army.

So, the Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate detained them on charges of building the outposts. However, during interrogation, the prisoners showed regret about their anti-Islamic and unlawful work, they gave an affidavit to the Islamic Emirate that they would not keep any ties with the company hereafter. Therefore, the Islamic Emirate freed them on the basis of Islamic sympathy and in honor of the advent of Eid-ul-fitr.

Foreign and local journalists witnessed the good health condition of the prisoners, which means that the Mujahideen had maintained a good and humane behavior with them during their detention. They were never tortured during the time of their captivity. This is amidst reports that thousands of Afghans are detained every month by the invaders and their puppets under various fraudulent charges, who are then harshly tortured during their illegal detentions.

All sides should follow the good example of humane behavior of the Islamic Emirate with the prisoners. Others also should respect the humane dignity and human rights of (our) prisoners and should abstain from committing brutal torture against them.

The Islamic Emirate not only behaved well with Turkish prisoners, but has always shown good mannerism with all prisoners, as this is the policy of the Islamic Emirate. Other parties have more facilities and material means than we have, they are morally bound to show, in comparison, good behavior towards the prisoners.
