Amir Muhammad Akhundzada is a politician in Afghanistan, He is Ex-Governor of Nimruz province.[1][2] He was previously the governor of Oruzgan province.[3] Prior to that he served as Deputy Governor of Helmand province.[4]

The Sunday Times (London) reported that the British government requested Mohammad Daoud should replace Akhundzada's brother Sher Mohammed Akhundzada as Helmand's governor before they sent 4,000 troops to Helmand.[4] The British requested Daoud's replacement because he has a reputation for corruption, ties to Afghanistan's Opium industry, and ties to the Taliban.[5]

The Sunday Times described the Hamid Karzai Presidency's appointment of Amir as Deputy Governor as one indication that they were trying to undermine Daoud's efforts to suppress the Opium Trade.[4] Both Daoud and Amir were replaced on December 10, 2006.
