Afghanistan university professor, who is known for criticising Taliban, goes missing
Kabul: A professor of an Afghanistan university, who is known for criticising the Taliban government, has gone missing.
The professor was identified as Sayed Baqir Mohsini.
He went missing on Friday.
Mohsini and a relative of his were on their way to participate in a TV program in the capital city of Kabul on Friday afternoon when they disappeared, according to Mohsini’s relatives as quoted by Tolo News.
Mohsini’s relatives told the news portal that they have contacted several security departments but have yet to get a response.
Several social media users have claimed the Taliban insurgents detained him.
“I call on the Islamic Emirate to release him soon and give comfort to his family. He has not committed any crime and his voice is the voice of the people,” Sayed Ali Aqa, a relative of Mohsini, told Tolo News.
“His (Mohsini) phones have been switched off since yesterday afternoon. We have looked for him today too but didn’t find anything,” Sayed Ahmad Hashimi, a relative of Mohsini, told the Afghan media outlet.
