PESHAWAR (Pajhwok): Trade between Afghanistan has been suspended for a more than week due to a protest against a controversial toll tax, transporters say.
Protesting transporters and local tribesmen announced convening a jirga of all major tribes of Khyber on Saturday to take a decision on the tax.
Despite protests, the National Highway Authority (NHA) has been collecting the tax from trade vehicles on the Peshawar-Torkham Highway.
