Excellency,
While extending our cordial esteems and best wishes, we kindly invite your attention to the following:
On 27th of September this year, 22 years elapse since the planned invasion of the Pakistani hired group on the UN compound in Kabul, which was carried on in contradiction with all accepted principles of the International Law, and as a gross and unbridled storm against the territorial integrity, independence and national sovereignty of Afghanistan.
On that black night, the adversary and hostile state of Pakistan, in collusion with its international supporters, could take a serious revenge from the Afghan freedom-lovers to compensate its historical failures in designing its invasion on the eastern gates of Afghanistan and other failed conspiracies and coup d’états.
The designated team of the Pakistani government, composed of generals and high-level army and ISI officers, including general Aslam Beg and general Hamid Gul, the Afghan and Pakistani spies, and with the endorsement of its mercenary army – the Taliban, blatantly breached the inviolability of the UN office and forcefully abducted the former president of Afghanistan Dr. Najibullah from that office, and brutally subjected him to humiliation and inhumane insulting in a pre-planned scenario, and murdered him and his brother Ahmadzai after torturing and tormenting them in a manner of medieval barbarism. This inhumane and horrible crime was a gruesome violation of, and in a gross contradiction with all values of the International Law, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and conventions emanated therefrom, the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, and Convention against Punishment of Persons under International and Diplomatic Protection.
The motive behind this inhumane crime and human tragedy was the political and historical enmity of Pakistan aiming at the removal of hurdles from the way of weakening and the eventual complete occupation of Afghanistan that started with the undeclared war of that country against the first republic of our country in 1975, continued with the exportation of the Jihadi groups in 1992, and completed with the creation of the Taliban militia. This crime of the designated delegation of the Pakistani government is regarded an explicit “state terrorism” and a clear insult of the international community and the United Nations.
How the silence of the United Nations Organization can be justified after the past two decades and two years?
Excellency,
The continuation of this silence simply means a subjugation and endorsement of the horrid acts and inhuman crimes of the villain terrorists and the state terrorism of Pakistan.
While the moral responsibility and the commitment of the UN toward the life of President Dr. Najibullah is brighter than the sun, unfortunately, however, it can be claimed that no good intention and good offices which were, time and again, asserted by the officials of the United Nations and His Excellency Dr. Boutros Boutros Ghali, were never exerted.
The Afghan Lawyers’ Association in Europe, as a professional entity and as an official legal personality which is independent and non-affiliated to political parties, looks at the issue as:
- A national cause of Afghanistan;
- A breach of the inviolability of the United Nations’ compound;
- A violation of all the accepted principles of International Law;
- An invasion of Afghanistan and the national values of Afghans;
And calls upon Your Excellency to:
Create an international and unbiased fact-finding commission, so that, based on the findings of the investigation delegation of the UN Security Council, the criminals are identified and brought before the court.
During the entire 17-year presence of the international community in Afghanistan, the adoption of the constitution and tumults about the equality of rights of Afghans, Dr. Najibullah has been discriminated and kept away from the national cause of the people.
The Association approaches the family of the Martyr Dr .Najibullah and the justice-supporting people of Afghanistan to stand behind this fair national cause of the people of Afghanistan and support it with their effective efforts.
With kind regards,
The Leadership Board of Association
Mir Abdul Wahid Sadat, President of Association.
