The Phantom Evacuee: An Intelligence Analysis of Identity Substitution in the DC Guard Shooting.

The Lakanwal case exhibits hallmarks of:
rushed identification
incomplete vetting
narrative engineering
and/or identity manipulation
Without conclusive biometric matching, the possibility remains that:
the real Rahmanullah Lakanwal does not reside in the United States,
never existed,
or was replaced by an unknown actor assuming his identity.
This warrants immediate investigative oversight.

The "Zero Units," also known as National Strike Units (NSUs), were elite Afghan paramilitary groups trained and funded by the CIA.
They operated separately from the Afghan National Army and were considered some of the most capable and trusted domestic forces during the US presence.
Following the US withdrawal in August 2021, many members of the Zero Units were evacuated due to their close ties with the US, making them high-priority targets for the Taliban.

The "ghost soldiers" scandal refers to the widespread corruption in the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF). Corrupt officials and commanders created fake personnel files to inflate troop numbers and illegally collect the salaries of nonexistent soldiers.
