Dozens of Herat residents protested outside the provincial gate on Saturday in connection with what is called usurpation of lands by a local powerful individual.
The protesters claim their lands were arrogated by a local powerful individual called “Sattar Pahlawan” in western Herat’s Kurkh district.
13 people were injured by the Pahlawan’s affiliates when they wanted to see their lands.
The protesters called on the government to take back their lands, warning that if the government does not pay attention to their demand, they will launch massive demonstration.
The local administrative said it will seriously follow up the issue.
