Two Afghan top officials sacked for spying: Karzai

KABUL (AFP) - President Hamid Karzai said he had sacked two "high-ranking" Afghan officials who were spying for foreign countries and warned he would spare no one found indulging in such activity.

Karzai, who made the disclosure at a lunch meeting with newly sworn-in parliament members, did not name the dismissed officials nor indicate when he took the action.

"Anyone found spying for foreign countries will be revealed and tried. In that regard we dismissed two people who were working in very high-ranking government positions," he told the lawmakers.

Karzai said he punished the two officials on the basis of strong evidence.

Hmmm, wonder what countries and what was revealed? :shrug:

how long does he indeed have before he's sacked or buried?

in the west for so long, and so loyal to the US and Britain, maybe he caught them spying for the foreign country of Afghanistan...
