A sad message came from Afghanistan. Merhab, who is known to some readers of my website, has been shot and killed. I and many others greatly liked Merhab. He took good care of us in Jalalabad. Every time I want to forget about Afghanistan, the names and faces of the good Afghans flood in, and Merhab was one of them. Merhab will be missed by people in many countries. Rest in peace from Thailand.
This is the sad note:
Ladies and Gentleman,
It is with great regret that I have to report to you some very sad news. This morning I was informed from Jalalabad that the Mehrab (Dr Mehrabudding Sirajuddin) the manager of the Taj was shot and killed by AGE yesterday. It seems it happened just a few hundred meters from his house in Najm-ul-Jihad close to [Jalalabad] city. His funeral is this morning at 0930 and I have passed on our condolences.
As you are all aware Mehrab was pivotal in the Taj and looked after us for a number of years and also went back along way with the UNICA compound in [Jalalabad].
Please pass to anyone who may have known him as he serves as part of our great memories and times in the Taj Jalalabad
MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE
