Mansour Ahmad Hamza, deputy spokesman for the Taliban's Supreme Court, said on Monday, October 12, that the implementation of the ruling in this case had previously been halted by order of Hibatullah Akhundzada, the Taliban's leader, so that the matter could be independently reviewed by a designated commission in the presence of representatives of the individuals involved in the case.


According to him, this commission, after a seven-month review of documents and decisions from the previous government, re-evaluated the case, and the Taliban's Supreme Court subsequently issued the order for implementation of the ruling.


Hamza added that individuals who have been deemed rightful by the court's review have the right to take possession of the disputed lands in Angurbagh. He emphasized that the new court order was issued with the aim of removing the lands from the possession of unauthorized individuals and handing them over to their rightful owners.


However, the Taliban's Supreme Court has not specified who has usurped the Angurbagh lands or to whom these properties will be transferred. The full details of the ruling and ownership documents of the involved parties have also not yet been released.


Meanwhile, residents of Angurbagh in Jalalabad gathered on Monday for the third consecutive day in protest against the forced eviction of their homes. They say they possess ownership documents and religious title deeds; yet, despite these papers, they have been compelled to leave their houses.


According to reports, around 40 families are facing eviction orders. Residents of the area are protesting the Taliban's decision and say that, despite having ownership documents, they face the risk of losing their homes.


In another incident, a woman from the Angurbagh residents attempted to end her life and that of her children in protest against the Taliban's decision for forced relocation; however, local individuals intervened to stop her.


Some Angurbagh residents have accused individuals close to Shahabuddin Dilawar, a senior Taliban figure, of attempting to seize their lands. However, these claims have not yet been independently verified.


The deputy spokesman for the Taliban's Supreme Court also did not mention the names of individuals accused of usurping the lands in his statements and did not specify to whom the disputed properties will ultimately be handed over.


Shahabuddin Dilawar previously served as the Taliban's Minister of Mines and Petroleum and now heads the Afghan Red Crescent Society under the control of the group.


The deputy spokesman for the Taliban's Supreme Court also said that during the implementation of the ruling on Sunday, reports were published in the media that raised concerns. He emphasized that handling legal cases and ensuring justice is the responsibility of the judiciary, and conclusions about a case cannot be drawn solely on the basis of media reports.


Nevertheless, the ongoing protests by residents and the raising of claims related to land ownership have sparked questions about the details of the case and the manner of implementing the ruling—questions that, given the lack of publication of the full text of the court's decision and ownership documents from both sides, have yet to receive clear answers.


Despite the announcement of the Taliban's Supreme Court's new decision, the full details of the Angurbagh case, documents submitted by the involved parties, and the identities of the individuals to whom the lands will be transferred remain unclear.



The Taliban's Supreme Court has announced that, after seven months of re-examining the case of the Angurbagh lands in Jalalabad, the final ruling on the usurpation of these lands has been confirmed, and an order for its implementation has been issued—a decision announced amid ongoing protests by residents of the area against the eviction of their homes.
