Former Afghan MP Zahir Qadir to be transferred to the US from Kenya

Former Afghan Member of Parliament, Zahir Qadir, is expected to be transferred from Kenya to the United States on Friday, according to sources close to Afghanistan Future media. The move follows a decision by the High Court in Nairobi to approve his extradition to the US. US authorities have accused Mr Qadir of drug trafficking and illegal possession of weapons. His family and lawyers have denied the allegations, saying the case against him is politically motivated.
