Kabul residents on Monday voiced their anger at former president Ashraf Ghani, who slipped out of the country unnoticed on Sunday, and accused him of national treason.

Many residents accused Ghani of deserting his people and of leaving them with a vague destiny.

Ghani is believed to be in Oman, after flying out of Kabul soon after the Taliban reached the gates of the capital on Saturday night.

Abdullah Abdullah, Chairman of the High Council for National Reconciliation said on Sunday in a video message that Ghani had left Kabul in a precarious position.

The former president ran away instead of consulting and reaching an agreement with the Islamic Emirate, said Ahmad Nasir, a resident of Kabul.

A number of other Kabul residents have accused Ghani of looting cash reserves and called for the country that is hosting Ghani to send him back to Afghanistan to face trial.

Mohammad Ashraf Ghani must be returned by Interpol police and held accountable for the betrayals he has committed against the people, said Mansour, another resident.

Some residents also appealed to the Taliban to focus on nation-building and security and to share their plans with the people.

People are worried. We want the Taliban to work for state-building and security and to share its plans, said Ahmad Fawad, a resident.

Kabul residents’ anger at Ghani comes after he repeatedly said he would not leave the country. But just one day before he fled, he announced a reshuffling of key figures in his security forces.
