Abdul Zahir, age unknown, is said to have served as a translator for the Taliban in Kabul and had later been chosen to work as a money courier for Abdul Hadi al Iraqi, a commander and accountant for al Qaeda.

He allegedly purchased a photocopy machine to mass produce anti-American leaflets. These leaflets were, according to the U.S. Pentagon, designed to recruit anti-American Afghans to plan and conduct operations against U.S. soldiers, and to spread anti-American propaganda.

Abdul Zahir was alleged entrusted by Al Qaeda with US$ 50,000 to fund terrorist acts against coalition forces. He is said to have transferred this money to other terrorist cells to support terrorist operations.

In early 2002, Abdul Zahir is said to have traveled to Peshawar, Pakistan and joined Abdul Hadi al Iraqi and others to plan explosives attacks against U.S. forces and civilian foreigners in the Zormat and Paktia provinces in Afghanistan.

On 4 March 2002, Abdul Zahir and others allegedly targeted a passing vehicle carrying foreign journalists through the eastern town of Zormat. They threw a grenade through the window of the vehicle. In the attack, Toronto Star correspondent Kathleen Kenna suffered severe leg injuries and life-threatening internal injuries.

Abdul Zahir was arrested in July 2002. He is currently detained at the U.S. military base at Guantánamo/ Cuba. He was charged by the Pentagon on 20 January 2006.
