Afghan policewoman kills US adviser

Written By Unknown on Senin, 24 Desember 2012 | 18.59

AN Afghan policewoman has shot and killed an American adviser outside the police headquarters in Kabul.

The woman, identified as Afghan police Sergeant Nargas, had entered a strategic compound in the heart of the capital and shot the adviser with a pistol as he came out of a small shop, Kabul Governor Abdul Jabar Taqwa told The Associated Press.

The woman was taken into Afghan custody shortly after the attack.

Earlier, she had asked bystanders where the governor's office was located, the governor said. As with many Afghans, the policewoman uses only one name.

The slain adviser was a contractor whose identity wasn't immediately released.

The attack occurred outside the police headquarters in a walled, highly secure compound which also houses the governor's office, courts and a prison. Kabul Deputy Police Chief Mohammad Daoud Amin said an investigation was under way.

The killing came just hours after an Afghan policeman shot five of his colleagues at a checkpoint in northern Afghanistan late Monday. The attacker then stole his colleague's weapons and fled to join the Taliban, said an official in Jawzjan province.

More than 60 international allies, including troops and civilian advisers, have been killed by Afghan soldiers or police this year.

More than 50 Afghan members of the government's security forces also have died this year in attacks by their own colleagues.

Taliban militants claim such attacks reflect a growing popular opposition to both foreign military presence and the Kabul government.

The provincial official in Jawzjan said the attacker on Sunday was an Afghan policeman manning a checkpoint in Dirzab District who turned his weapon on five colleagues before fleeing to the militant Islamist group.
