SHARANA (Pajhwok): The residents of Janikhel district in southeastern Paktika province say the number of drug addicts has recently surged in the town and they include police and women as well.
Hasti Gul, a resident, told Pajhwok Afghan News that the population of drug addicts had increased by hundreds in recent past.
Mahmood, another resident, confirmed the growing number of addicts in Janikhel and blamed it on unemployment. “The government is not serious about drugs because police personnel also make a large part of the addicts,” he . . .
