From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There are multiple individuals named Abdul Sattar.

Mullah Abdul Sattar is one of three Taliban commanders the Afghan Justice Project has accused of bearing overall responsibility for the summary execution of hundreds of civilians, on January 8, 2001, in Yakaolong, Afghanistan.:[1]

During his testimony before his Combatant Status Review Tribunal Guantanamo captive Muhibullah, a Taliban conscript, said he worked in an area under the jurisdiction of a Mula Satar.[2]

During his first Administrative Review Board hearing Guantanamo captive Mohammed Yacoub faced three allegations that mentioned a Taliban commander named Mullah Satar.[3]

  • "The detainee admitted his connection to Mullah Satar, a forward commander for the Taliban against the Northern Alliance."
  • "Mullah Satar is one of three Taliban Commanders responsible for the murder of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) employee on 27 March 2003."
  • "The detainee said he received approximately four million Afghani from Mullah Satar for compensation for his lost leg."
