A photograph circulating on social media reportedly shows a man alleged to have been arrested in connection with the recent killing of Wahid Wisal, who was described in earlier reports as an intelligence official associated with Nangarhar Central Prison in Jalalabad.
The National Mobilization Front (NMF) had previously claimed responsibility for Wisal’s killing, alleging that he headed intelligence operations at the prison.
The latest social media posts claim that a suspect involved in the attack has now been detained. However, WAR MONITOR has not independently confirmed the identity of the person shown in the circulating photograph, the circumstances of his reported arrest, or his alleged involvement in the attack.
Independent verification is pending.
