The Talibans have revealed the final resting place of the movement’s founder, Mullah Omar, whose death and burial they kept secret for years. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told that senior leaders of the movement attended a ceremony at his gravesite earlier on Sunday near Omarzo, in Suri district of Zabul province. “Since a lot of enemies were around and the country was occupied, to avoid damage to the tomb it was kept secret,” Mujahid said, “Only the close family members were aware of the place. Now the decision has been made, there are no issues for the people to visit the tomb,” he added.
