KABUL - The Taliban are against peace and stability in the country and are trying to increase their insurgent activities together with the terrorist groups in Pakistan, NDS officials said Sunday.
Spokesman for the National Directorate of Security Sahfiqullah Taheri said that as the international community is putting more pressure on Pakistan to combat terrorism honestly, the insurgents are trying to increase violence in Afghanistan through the Taliban and other Pakistani terrorist networks.

"The Taliban don't want peace in Afghanistan, they want to overrun the recent political achievements in the country, in coordination with terrorist groups in Pakistan, they are trying to escalate violence,"Taheri told reporters in a press briefing.

He also said that several people were arrested recently while involved in insurgent activity with documents and ID cards of Pakistan.

"We have proof. They were born in Pakistan, trained in Pakistani Madarasas and terrorist training camps," he told reporters, adding that members of five terrorist groups were killed or detained recently in Helmand, Ghazni and Kabul with Pakistani nationals among them. (Tolo News)
