He was killed during the civil war in Kabul, during which he and my husband remained in the city while the rest of the family was sent to Behsud. One day, he had just left his home when one of the warring factions arrested him and then took him to Company area, where he was locked up in a private jail. He was detained together with his friend and spent three months there. He was then murdered and buried. We never saw his dead body. In fact, we only came to know about his murder after we received his turban, hat and toothbrush. The man who brought his possessions told us how the militias had tortured him. With his feet in chains, he supplied water to the militia base every day. Eventually his dead body was found in a well. Later on, the people from the area took him out of the well and gave him a proper burial. All what is left from him are his turban, hat and toothbrush. I now want to show these objects to other people so they understand that the militias killed a 70 years old man!
