The European Union and Norway in a released statement on Monday called for the conclusion of the legal proceedings against the First Vice President General Abdul Rashid Dostum.
“The European Union and Norway takes note of the return of 1st Vice President, General Abdul Rashid Dostum to Afghanistan. We expect the conclusion of the legal proceedings against General Dostum, in full respect of the law and due process. Nobody should be above the law,” the EU and Norway heads of missions in Afghanistan said in a statement.
“It is important that all Afghans continue to work together to promote peace, stability, and democracy throughout the country, based on full respect for the rule of law by all citizens,” the statement added.
Gen. Dostum arrived to Kabul from Turkey last month after almost 14 months in exile.
The EU and Norway Heads of Missions have not specified the existing case against Gen. Dostum in their statement.
