During the holy month of Ramadan there were players and hundreds of spectators present for the tournament held on the night. Khogayani said that the investigation is going on.

No one has ever taken responsibility for this attack, but Taliban terrorists and Islamic State groups in East Afghanistan are quite active, especially in Nangarhar province.
