Mullah Baradar holds Pakistani Passport and National Identity Card: Report
There is a photo of the thing at the link.
[KhaamaPress] The Deputy Political Chief of Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar also holds Pak passport and National Identity Card.

A former official of the National Directorate of Security
...the Afghan national intel agency...
(NDS) has told RFE/RL that three reliable intelligence sources have confirmed that Mullah Baradar holds Pak passport and National Identity Card.

The official further added that Pakistain has issued the documents to Mullah Baradar under the fake name of Muhammad Arif Agha.
Good to know.
The official also added that Pakistain has adopted a policy to issue passports and National Identity Cards to Taliban under fake identities in a bid to pave the way for them to travel abroad.

The documents were reportedly issued to Mullah Baradar in Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...
city of Pakistain on 7th of July 2014.

However,
it's easy to be generous with someone else's money...
the Taliban group has rejected that Mullah Baradar holds Pak passport and National Identity Card, claiming that the pictures of documents circulating on social media are fake.

This comes as the former Taliban supreme leader Mullah Akhtar Mansoor was also holding a Pak passport which was recovered following a dronezap which killed him in 2016.

#3 PakistaniPM under fire for saying US ‘martyred’ Osama bin Laden
Critics on Friday slammed Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan for telling Parliament that the US “martyred” al Qaeda kingpin Osama bin Laden.

Bin Laden, the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, was killed in 2011 when US special forces raided his hideout in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad, an operation that Pakistan was not told of in advance.

“I will never forget how we Pakistanis were embarrassed when the Americans came into Abbottabad and killed Osama bin Laden, martyred him,” Khan said, the BBC reported.

“Imran Khan called Osama bin Laden shaheed. Bin Laden brought terrorism to our lands, he was a terrorist through and through and he [Khan] calls him shaheed?” said Pakistan Muslim League senior leader Khawaja Asif Asif during the National Assembly session, reported Dawn.com, an English-language Pakistani news site.

Shaheed is an Arabic term for martyr.

Asif ripped Khan, calling bin Laden an “ultimate terrorist.”

“He destroyed my nation, and [Khan] is calling him a martyr,” Asif told Parliament.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, whose Pakistan Peoples Party was in power when bin Laden was killed, accused the prime minister of appeasing violent extremism, according to the BBC.
