Matin Beg: Taliban Crimes Must Never Be Forgotten.
Fourteen years ago, on the fourth day of Jadi, Martyr Matlab Beg was killed in a Taliban suicide attack while attending the funeral prayers of a respected village elder in Sarai Sang area of Taloqan city. The attack occurred among local residents and, according to the victims’ families, remains deeply etched in the collective memory of the people and has never faded with time.
Matin Beg, the son of Matlab Beg and former Chief of Staff to the President, commemorating his father’s memory, described the attack as a clear example of the Taliban’s violent record. He stressed that the passage of time cannot erase such crimes or diminish their impact on society.
He stated: “We do not forget the actions and conduct of the Taliban. They not only took the lives of innocent people, but also targeted the security, trust, and peace of our society. These crimes are recorded in history and will never be erased.”
According to Matin Beg, keeping the memory of such events alive is a historical and moral responsibility essential for seeking justice, preventing the distortion of truth, and holding the perpetrators of violence accountable.
