One of the Taliban's military commanders in Badakhshan, Qari Mahrab, along with his 25 fighters, has joined the peace process.
Maharb said he was the intelligence commander for both local and foreign terrorists in Badakhshan.
According to him, 11 years ago he received military and religious training at terrorist centers in Pakistan. He then started carrying out anti-government and insurgency activities along with fellow fighters in Wardoj district of Badakhshan.
"Eleven years ago I got lessons in Pakistan and for seven years I have been with Taliban and I was on all Taliban's battle frontlines," Maharab said.
He said he played a key role in the collapse of many parts of Badakhshan, especially in the collapse of Yamgan and Wardoj districts.
