Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai has ordered the release of 20 would-be suicide bombers detained by security forces. Learning opportunities for the pardoned suicide bombers will be available inside or outside the county, especially in Turkey.

President Karzai termed suicide bombings, which result in the death of innocent people, as oppression to Islam and an effort to defame Islam. Tolo TV showed an 11-year-old pardoned suicide bomber who said he was trained in a madrasa in Pakistan and was told if he conducts suicide attacks he would not be hurt, and another teenager said he was injected with some drugs, though he was healthy, and then sent to carry out a suicide attack. Meanwhile, the head of Afghanistan’s Ulema Council, Qiamuddin Kashaf addressing the pardoned suicide bombers told that they are kids and are not obliged to do so, their duty is to study.
