A teenage son of a merchant was killed with knife wounds in the eighth district of Herat city last night.
Syed Hassan Hashemi, an independent journalist, reported this news on Sunday, October 11th, on his Facebook page.
The perpetrators and motive behind this crime remain unknown. The Taliban group has not yet responded to this incident.
This comes as insecurity has recently increased in various parts of the country.
Previously, unknown individuals had killed two people in Kandahar and Herat provinces, which usually remain without follow-up investigations.
