"Hamid Gul Baladur?"
Diaz also recognized the man's identity, and his expression of surprise was even more surprising than Mandy's.
The reason why Team E was wiped out in the first place was that they entered a house rashly, and the purpose of entering the house was to capture Baradur.
That is the person in the photo in front of me!
The investigation lasted for more than a month, with more than 20 large and small actions in total, and finally it was back to the starting point.
Baradur, who was blown to pieces, popped out alive again.
It's no wonder that Mandy, who is used to big scenes, lost her composure at this moment.
Eric was attracted by Diaz's exclamation. He came over and was equally surprised when he saw the photo. He couldn't believe it: "This bastard is really not dead?"
After the incident, the FBI and CIA both sent people to clean up the explosion site.
From the minced body parts of the building wreckage, the DNA of six members of Team E and the DNA of two Afghan men were accurately identified.
The forensic team therefore came to a conclusion.
Balladur, who wore a bomb belt 24 hours a day, and his bodyguard wearing a bomb vest, were killed along with Team E.
This is even after Jason, Long Zhan and Mandy ran to Xinwa to meet the warlord Zad Khan.
It is known from Zaidhan's ambiguous answer that Balladur may still be alive, and there is no reason why Balladur is the target of the investigation.
Everyone is dead, so there is no point in investigating.
"We are still sure that Baladur is the No. 2 figure in the entire Halani network. Unexpectedly, he is still alive and now he hired a murderer to kill Salim." Diaz lamented.
"No, not Baradur."
Mandy shook her head and explained: "In Halani's network system, Balladur has always been the person only responsible for executing orders."
"you mean……"
Diaz stared and guessed: "Nuri Halani wants Salim to die?"
Halani is the most influential armed terrorist leader in the entire Afghanistan, and has always been the top target that the US military wants to destroy.
However, the investigation against Halani has been going on for many years, but there is no trace of Halani at all.
"Yes, that's right. If it is confirmed that Baladur hired Abu Ali to assassinate Salim, it must be because Halani asked him to do so." Mandy affirmed.
"That is to say..."
Eric suddenly understood and said with great surprise: "The person behind the design of the trap to attack Team E is probably Nuri Halani.
This big fish we have been chasing for years is finally coming to the surface, which is good news. "
A serious problem that has troubled the U.S. military for many years has emerged. The conspiracy to destroy Team E, which has been uncovered layer after layer without revealing the truth, is finally coming to light.
If Halani can be caught, it will definitely be a great achievement.
At that time, all personnel involved in the operation will receive very generous monetary and honorary rewards, and there will be no more obstacles for Eric to break through the "Major".
With such a big temptation in front of him, it's no wonder Eric was so happy.
"When was the last time we photographed Baradur?"
Diaz has always wanted to become an officer from a non-commissioned officer, and she secretly began to study related courses on her own a year ago. She also needs the blessing of a big credit, and she is also eager to give it a try.
"Many, many years ago," Mandy smiled.
"Sir, this is a rare opportunity. I think it is necessary for us to catch him before he runs back to the tribe and hides."
Diaz just spoke to Eric's heart. Eric immediately picked up the radio and ordered: "B1, this is the combat center. I need you to go back immediately. We have a new target..."
Jason was feeling depressed and annoyed after catching a useless errand boy.
When he heard that things were about to turn around, he immediately turned around and returned to the trading location. He got out of the car and formed an assault formation to enter the house where Balladur was located.
Although the operations center and Team B responded quickly enough, Balladur was too cautious.
Team B rushed to the location indicated by Eric. Baradur and his men, who were originally on the balcony, had long since disappeared without a trace.
Since no one was caught, Team B had no choice but to return without success, and returned to the headquarters conference room for a meeting in some dejection.
The fact that the person was not caught and the target was alerted meant that the plan completely failed.
If you can still laugh and laugh, then there is a real problem.
Mandy could feel the demoralization of people. She still had to tell the information that needed to be told, and she had to find a way to find "hope" in it.
"Hamid Gul Baladur, friend and protector of members of the Halani network, god of death for others."
Mandy removed Balladur's photo from the bottom of the mission clue board and pasted it to the top representing the core investigation target.
Then he told everyone: "He has planned many terrorist attacks, and there is no specific group of people. Journalists, Afghan officials, coalition forces and us are all his targets.
Nuri Halani is the leader of Baladur, an influential terrorist leader and a descendant of a long-standing warlord in Afghanistan.
For hundreds of years, his family has controlled large areas of Nangahar, Paktia, and Khost provinces.
The funny thing is……"
Mandy smiled self-deprecatingly and paused for a few breaths before continuing: "Halani's father has always been an important ally of the US government. He was killed by the Soviets in 1986. Halani took over power, and everything began to change.
Under the leadership of Halani, a huge network headed by him was built and various criminal activities were started.
They privately killed civilians who did not cooperate with them, illegally purchased large quantities of weapons to form private armies, assassinated journalists and officials who exposed their actions, and forcibly collected high protection fees from all companies within their control areas.
All kinds of violent and terrorist acts can be said to be all kinds of evil.
We have always wanted to take down this Hanali network, but Halani never comes out of his tribal territory, so this cannot be carried out. "
