GHAZNI CITY (PAN): Taliban insurgents, who have vowed to disrupt the presidential and provincial council polls slated for Thursday, are going from door to door to collect voter registration cards from residents of Gilan district of southern Ghazni province.

Residents told Pajhwok Afghan News the militants were also taking the wheat distributed to them a month back. A group of 10 fighters snatched voter registration cards from dwellers of Maryan village last night, said Gul Zaman.
