A group of unidentified heavily armed men, suspected to be Taliban officials, entered Gurdwara Karte Parwan in Kabul forcefully and vandalised it on the pretext of conducting search in the complex.
Puneet Singh Chandhok, president, India World Forum, said security guards of the gurdwara were handcuffed and CCTV cameras damaged. Later, the men left the place. “They not only abused the sanctity of the holy place but also vandalised it,” he said.
Gurnam Singh, president, gurdwara committee, spoke to Taliban intelligence officials over the incident.
DSGMC president Manjinder Singh Sirsa said the persons who entered the gurdwara pretended to be Taliban officials, whereas Taliban leaders in the Afghan government had denied any link with the assailants.
