"Two of Mir Wali's grandchildren, his nephew and the son of a public representative from southern Oruzgan province, are among those killed," said Faraidon Obaidi, head of Kabul Police Criminal Investigation Department. Two of Wali's bodyguards and two guests were also among the dead, police spokesman Basir Mujahid told dpa.
