The main bodyguard of the former President of Afghanistan stated that Ashraf Gani escaped from the country with millions of dollars. According to the author of the publication in Daily Mail Richard Pedlbury, General of the Presidential Palace Guardian is hidden in the basement in one of the districts of Kabul.
“I have a video surveillance recording from the palace, which shows that the person from the Afghan bank before leaving the Ghani brought a lot of money. Hundreds of millions, perhaps billions of dollars. There were many big bags, and they were heavy. It was not rice , – said in an interview to the British publication General of the Presidential Palace Guard Pyraz Ata Sharifi.
General Sharphy told that the money was intended for the exchange of currency exchange and every Thursday for this purpose were brought dollars. But instead, president took them and escaped.
He noted that it will tell the details and provide evidence when it turns out in a safe place.
Journalists of the British publication reported that the Taliban is looking for Sharify across the entire capital of Afghanistan, promising a big award to the one who will provide information on the location of the former bodyguard of the president.
Note that Ashraf Ghani escaped from Afghanistan in August of this year, shortly before the Taliban captured power in Kabul. Ambassador of Afghanistan in Tajikistan Muhammad Zohir Agbar, speaking after that at a press conference, said that Ghani stole 169 million dollars from the treasury.
