The murder of Zia Wadan, who previously worked for different media, seems to be the last in a series of targeted strikes that are shaking Afghanistan, especially the capital Cabul, where journalists, politicians and rights activists are increasingly targeted, despite peace talks between the government and the Taliban.

National Public Protection Force (NPPF) is a security service under the interior ministry that sets guards in international organisations throughout Afghanistan
