"Police Captain "
Holding her Smith & Wesson pistol, Police Captain Jammilla Bargzai,
left, says the Taliban uses night letters as a weapon of intimidation.
For Mohammed Qasim, right, they are terrifying enough to persuade
him to quit his job as janitor at Bargzai's Kandahar station. For
the Taliban, the night letters are a cost-effective way to exploit
such anxieties. 'They don't have weapons to come to town to fight,'
says Captain Bargzai, head of the Kandahar police department's crime-investigation
unit. 'Their only weapon is to scare people.' |
