A video capturing an incident in France shows an Afghan man heckling General Qamar Javed Bajwa, the former Chief of the Pakistan Army. The Pashto-speaking man accused Bajwa of human rights violations in Afghanistan and claimed that he had assisted the Taliban in looting the country.
The viral video on social media depicts the man hurling insults at Bajwa, referring to him as a "murderer" and alleging his involvement in aiding the Taliban's actions in Afghanistan. The civilian further accused Bajwa of waging a 40-year-long war under the guise of Jihad in Afghanistan, ultimately leading to human rights violations.
In the footage, Bajwa can be seen sitting on the road with his wife. He attempts to prevent the person from recording the incident and warns of involving the police. However, the civilian remains undeterred and challenges Bajwa by saying, "Bulao police" (call the police).
From November 2016 to November 2022, General Bajwa served as the Chief of Army Staff in Pakistan. During his tenure, the Taliban regained power and overthrew the civilian government of former President Ashraf Ghani in August 2021.
There is a prevailing sentiment among some Afghans that the Pakistani army trained and supported the Taliban in their takeover of Afghanistan. Shortly after the Taliban assumed power, the then Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, lauded the militant organization, stating that Afghanistan had freed itself from the "shackles of slavery."
It is widely believed that Pakistan has played a significant role in assisting the Taliban's rise to power in Afghanistan. The relationship between Pakistan and the Taliban traces back to the group's origins, with allegations of Pakistan providing training and support to the militants.
Since the 1990s, Pakistan's military establishment has been accused of facilitating the growth of the militant organization in Afghanistan as part of its regional pursuit of "strategic depth."
"Some individuals within the Pakistani establishment sympathized with the extremists' radical ideology, while others deemed it a necessary asset to counter India," stated The Financial Times in a report.
