Afghan police apprehend 16 criminals: official

KABUL, July 10, (Xinhua): Afghan police have apprehended 16 criminal elements from across Afghanistan during a series of operations over the past 24 hours, the Ministry of Interior Affairs said Thursday.

The arrested individuals, who were involved in theft, immoral activities, and forgery, were detained in Herat, Badghis, Ghazni, Sari Pul, Nimroz, and Khost provinces, a statement from the ministry posted on its X account said.

Police won't allow anyone to create law and order problems for the citizens, the statement went on to say. In similar operations against outlaws, police arrested 25 alleged criminals from different provinces of the country a week ago.
