The man worked in collaboration with the US government and also specifically with the CIA, "as a member of a partner force in Kandahar," CIA Director John Ratcliffe confirmed in a statement.
The suspect came to the United States in September 2021 – a few weeks after the United States withdrew all forces from Afghanistan under chaotic conditions where the Taliban took back government power.
