Afghan judges provided vehicles for safe transportation

[Admin Khan]

Afghanistan Supreme Court judges were provided with new 19 vehicles for their safe and reliable transportation in and around the four regional courts of Kabul, an official said.
“These vehicles will be used to transport the judges from their home to the office to so they will not face intimidation,” said Khesrawee, deputy administrator for the Supreme Court of Afghanistan. He said the vehicles were needed because of the dangers judges faced.
The vehicles, including 13 vans and six sedans, had been purchased by the US government to provide secure, dependable transportation for some of the 1,600 judges in Kabul. Two additional vehicles will be delivered later this week.
“Afghan judges face many problems. Some have been killed and some have been kidnapped,” Khesrawee said, adding a judge hearing a drug case was shot in the chest and killed in his own home after he refused to accept money in exchange for a verdict.
“Having this (vehicle) package will definitely solve a big problem in Kabul. We are very pleased,” said Chief Justice Abdul Salam Azimi said.
Combined Joint Interagency Task Force 435 facilitated the $1.2 million purchase using Commander’s Emergency Response Program funds, enabling commanders to successfully respond to urgent humanitarian relief and reconstruction requirements within their areas of responsibility by carrying out programs that immediately assist the local population.
“Providing safe and reliable transportation to judges who hear sensitive national security cases is of critical importance to the development of rule of law in Afghanistan,” said U.S. Navy Vice Adm. Robert S. Harward, CJIATF-435 commander. “The lack of reliable transportation in Kabul results in the delay and cancellation of scheduled court sessions, undermining rule of law efforts.”Source

Its for security purposes. It also encourages young people to become judges. There is a lot of factors involved when such decisions are made.

It doesn't serve any other purpose than maintaining a 'show' of stability .. These judges and other high profile government officers are Taliban prime targets, the judges even moreso cuz an official judicial system is seen as a direct infringement on the Taliban 'rule of law'.. So if let's say someone blows up a bus full of students it won't make the headlines but if a judge dies in a roadside bomb it's a catastrophe cuz it symbolizes and projects chaos at a much bigger level

Essentially these cars are equipped with jammers for IEDs n wires cuz it's the best way for CIA to collect intel

Here is the deciphered version of what Talal would like to say:

It doesn't serve any other purpose than maintaining a 'show' of stability .. These judges and other high profile government officers are ISI/Pakistan prime targets, the judges even moreso cuz an official judicial system is seen as a direct infringement on the ISI/Taliban 'rule of law'.. So if let's say someone blows up a bus full of students it won't make the headlines but if a judge dies in a roadside bomb it's a catastrophe cuz it symbolizes and projects chaos at a much bigger level (love the easy soft targets, our brave army loves these easy soft targets)

Essentially these cars are equipped with jammers for IEDs n wires cuz it's the best way for CIA (damn these *******s for making it hard on our army bhai's) to collect intel (lets put some 'intishar' here in case these stupid pashtoons are still falling for it)

This message is hidden cuz Baygham is on your ignore list

Say whaaaaat

[شمله ور خراساني]

these filthy thieves and looters who are appointed as judges demand thousands of dollars from people to deal with their cases. Even people who are not guilty of any crime are forced to pay large sums of money in US Dollars.

As a result, people have left the secular American judiciary system and seek justice from Shari'i courts of the Taliban.

Now the kaafir government of Afghanistan is awarding these criminals with saver modes of transportation. As if they could not afford it themselves already after sucking the people dry demanding sums as high as 50.000 dollars for resolving legal matters.

Guys,

While the Taliban related insecurity problem is of a macro scale and but this has very much less to do with it. Seriously, these people don't feel any intimidation from Taliban within Kabul with adequate security but rather organised mafias and powerful criminal cliques and seems (this might wishful thinking) some steps towards the anti-corruption graft in the govt. which might have to involve the powerfuls. And one wonders why providing these expensive vehicles vere so pressing that the Commander’s Emergency Response Program funds had to finance it.
