Shocking Admission Reveals the True Face of Taliban Administration: Theft Is Rampant.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Corruption, theft, and nepotism within Taliban institutions have reached a critical breaking point, turning what the group once called a \u201cpure emirate\u201d into a structure deeply infected with bribery and plunder.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Citizens across the country widely complain of systemic corruption, and even Taliban members and employees themselves have been forced to admit it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A staff member from Taliban security and reserve departments in Kabul stated cautiously yet clearly:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTheft has become widespread in the Emirate.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Contrary to official slogans, financial corruption, bribery, and nepotism in appointments\u2014especially in revenue-generating and public-facing offices\u2014have expanded dramatically.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Observers say Taliban governance now resembles a highly sycophantic and mafia-like network, where law holds no real authority.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this structure, every individual operates under the protection of a power network, and corruption, theft, and even betrayal are not punished\u2014but rewarded.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A clear example is Dr. Bari Omar, former head of the national power company (Breshna), who was accused of embezzling nearly USD 400,000 from an electricity project.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Instead of facing prosecution, he was quietly removed from Breshna and later appointed Head of Protocol at the Taliban Ministry of Foreign Affairs.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Experts warn that widespread repression, silencing of independent media, and the complete removal of public oversight have turned the Taliban into a fully unaccountable authority.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In such an environment, corruption remains hidden from public view, and no institution considers itself responsible.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0Analysts believe that as long as this closed, repressive, and opaque system remains in place, corruption under Taliban rule will not be an exception\u2014but the governing norm.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
