'No Change of Leadership': Afghanistan Embassy Rejects Reports of Taliban Appointing New Envoy in Delhi

News 18  

The Afghan Embassy in New Delhi on Monday said there was no change in the leadership in the Indian mission as it issued a statement resisting the attempts for a Taliban-appointed official to take over. The statement comes after the Taliban’s foreign ministry issued a letter directing another official in the embassy Mohammad Qadir Shah to take over the charge of the embassy in New Delhi. The Taliban regime decided to recall Afghan Ambassador Farid Mamundzay and appoint the current Trade Counsellor Qadir Shah as the Charge D’ Affaires in his place. Mamundzay issued a statement calling the allegations “one-sided, biased and untruthful.” Sources told CNN-News18 that the Taliban regime has written to Afghan mission dismissing Afghan diplomats in Delhi 14 times in less than two years.
