Taliban government officials have confirmed that Wahidullah Asghari, the former president of the Afghan National Snooker Federation, was assassinated by armed men in Kabul. The motive behind this targeted killing remains unclear as investigations continue.

According to local sources, Asghari had gone missing from near his residence in the Qala-e-Fathullah area before his body was handed over to his family. The sports administration has described his sudden death as highly unfortunate and tragic.

Authorities praised his valuable contributions to the Afghan sports sector over the years. This incident raises ongoing security concerns, following another recent deadly attack in Herat province that claimed multiple lives.
