I belong to Allah and I return to Him
Sadly, baby Haider was separated from us forever
Our country today is again the host of a great tragedy
May Allah grant patience to all the Afghan people and especially to Haider’s family
And may God bring more spring of happiness– Anas Haqqani (ØÙ‚ AnasHaqqani313) February 18, 2022
Anas Haqqani, a senior adviser to the Taliban’s Interior Ministry, said in a tweet that Haider was “deeply saddened” to be separated from us forever.
It is to be noted that this child named Haider had fallen into a well while walking along the road in a village called Shokak on Tuesday. The boy could have been plowed when he fell into the 25-meter-deep well, but things got worse when people there tried to pull him out.
After being pulled ten meters, the child got stuck in a place because the road there was very narrow. The child remained in that condition for about 30 hours. Rescue workers were unable to reach the scene.
