Anas Haqqani, the younger brother of Taliban's new Interior Minister Sirajuddin Haqqani, hailed infamous Afghan invader Mahmud Ghaznavi, who attacked Somnath Temple multiple times, as "a renowned Muslim warrior". Haqqani said this during his visit to the tomb of Ghaznavi. "Ghaznavi (May the mercy of Allah be upon him) established a strong Muslim rule in the region from Ghazni & smashed the idol of Somnath," Haqqani tweeted.
