Mohammad Qasim Halimi is chief of the Judicial Monitoring and Control Department of the Afghan Supreme Court, but was Chief of Protocol in the Taliban government under Muhammad Omar|Mullah Omar. With this background, he is considered a potential negotiator with any emerging Taliban moderates,[1] and is a deputy to Afghan Chief Justice, Dr. Abdul Salam Azimi. Halimi, who had spent a year in Bagram Prison, had given up wearing the black Pakul mujahedeen turban and had trimmed, but did not shave, his beard; he is freer to move than other former Taliban who work with the government. He also is in touch with other former Taliban, such as former Taliban Foreign Minister Wakil Muttawakil and Abdul Salam Zaeef, former Taliban Ambassador to Afghanistan; they spent time in the same prisons, [2] Given the status of women under the Taliban, it is interesting to find him at a clerical human rights symposium, where he spoke of the positive role of women in reducing violence.
