Pakistan intel service created IS Khorasan: Armenian think tank

Yerevan: Pakistan’s ISI cleverly created the IS-Khorasan, to protect the Taliban from being blamed for the recent killings in Afghanistan. This organization has terrorists from the Taliban and the Lashkar-e-Taiba, a terrorist organization in Pakistan, claimed an Armenian think tank. A few hours ago, the former Vice-President of Afghanistan Amrulla Saleh accused the IS-Khorasan of having links with the Taliban. It is clear that Pakistan’s ISI, which is notorious for its terrorist activities worldwide, is behind it all.

Two days ago, the United States and the Taliban blamed IS-Khorasan for a suicide bombing in the Afghan capital, Kabul. IS-Khorasan is affiliated with the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria-ISIS, a brutal terrorist organization that carried out inhumane acts in Iraq and Syria a few years ago. But an Armenian think tank wrote in an article in a local newspaper that the Pakistan intelligence service created IS-Khorasan.

The think tank has said that Pakistan’s notorious ISI has conspired to acquit the Taliban by creating IS-Khorasan. The Taliban and Pakistan, which support them, are directly blamed for any terrorist attacks in Afghanistan. Pakistan is blamed around the world for the instability in Afghanistan. The Armenian think tank claims that ISI created IS-Khorasan to protect itself and the Taliban from being blamed for the terrorist attacks in Afghanistan.

Besides, the think tank also provided evidence of IS-Khorasan leaders being associated with Pakistanis and the Taliban. These include the founders of IS-Khorasan and beyond. Hafiz Saeed Khan and Abdul Hasib Logari were both members of the Taliban and had received training in Pakistan. Aslam Farooqi and Maulvi Abdulla, the head of the IS-Khorasan terrorist group who carried out the terrorist attack on a gurdwara in Afghanistan, were both members of Pakistan’s Lashkar-e-Taiba militant group. After Farooqi, another terrorist of the Lashkar took charge of the organization.

Among those, Aslam Farooqi was arrested by the Pakistan Army. Pakistan had to hand over Farooqi to Afghan security forces as per the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIS) instructions. But Pakistani analysts have pointed out that the Pakistani military did not hand over Farooqi to Afghan security forces. Mullah Baradar, the Taliban’s second-in-command, was also a Pakistani prisoner. Therefore, the Taliban and IS-Khorasan leaders currently terrorizing Afghanistan emerge as another terrorist offspring of Pakistan’s ISI.
