The General Directorate of Intelligence (GDI; Pashto: د استخباراتو لوی ریاست; Dari: ریاست عمومی استخبارات) is the Afghan national intelligence and security agency under the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
Organization
Supreme Leader Hibatullah Akhundzada has claimed that the GDI reports directly to him, according to a statement released by Spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid in 2022 that purportedly quoted Akhundzada. Following the Fall of Kabul on 15 August 2021, the General Directorate of Intelligence (GDI) have become the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan's intelligence agency under the Taliban.[3]
Activities
Since the Taliban takeover in August 2021, six hundred ISIS members, four kidnappers, dozens of mafia and other criminals have been arrested by the GDI.[4][5][6][7]
Despite Taliban pledges to be tolerant, the GDI announced on March 2, 2022, that Afghan media must show a "press-friendly" image of the Taliban while they pressure reporters on rules that should not contradict Islamic values.[8]
The GDI typically provides intelligence on both foreign and domestic issues to the current Afghan leader, Akhundzada.
