Kabul suicide bomber was arrested in Delhi 5 years ago: pro-ISIS magazine

Kabul, Sep 18 (UNI) The suicide bomber who blew himself up amidst thronging crowds outside Kabul airport last month had been arrested in Delhi five years ago, while he was planning an attack in India and deported to Afghanistan, according to the ISIS propaganda magazine Sawt-al-Hind.
According to social media reports, the latest issue of the pro-ISIS Sawt-al-Hind says that the Islamic State-Khorasan bomber was arrested in Delhi five years ago, imprisoned, and later deported back to Afghanistan.
The magazine names the August 26 bomber as “a soldier of the Khilafah, Abdur Rahman al-Logri”.
The Sawk-al-Hind also refers to the Taliban as ‘murtad’, meaning apostate – ‘one who turns back’ from Islam.
The magazine says: ‘By the Grace of Allah, a soldier of the Khilafah, Abdur Rahman al-Logri, carried out an istishadhi (martyrdom) operation, which resulted in the deaths of 250 people, including 13 crusading American marines, over a dozen murtad Taliban fighters.
‘The brother was arrested five years ago in India, when he had travelled to Delhi to carry out an istishadhi operation on the cow worshipping Hindus in revenge for Kashmir.
“But Allah had decreed otherwise. The brother was tested with imprisonment and deported to Afghanistan.”
The August 26 suicide attack, claimed by the IS-Khorasan, killed nearly 200 people, including 13 US troops, and left scores injured. The suicide bomber blew himself up among the huge crowds outside the gates of Kabul’s Hamid Karzai International Airport seeking to leave the country in the wake of the Taliban victory in the country.
