Sher Agha

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There are multiple Afghans named Sher Agha.

Sher Agha

  • Guantanamo captive Nasrullah's continued detention is justified, in part, due to his ties to Sher Agha.[1] The allegations against Nasrullah state that Sher Agha had served as a commander in the anti-Soviet militia Hizb-I Islami Gulbuddin, during the struggle against Afghanistan's Soviet occupiers.
  • Sher Agha was one of five Loya Jirga members selected to serve as a representative of the Afghan refugees in Iran.[2] In early June 2002, when he and the other four representatives arrived, they found that they had been replaced by other appointees.
