Konar Province is where a U.S. military helicopter crashed on 28 June, possibly as a result of enemy fire during fighting in the mountainous region.
Gol Mohammad was killed by an explosion that was apparently triggered by a remote-control device.
While Hindukosh has blamed the neo-Taliban for the incident, no one has claimed responsibility for killing the security chief.
