The Taliban have allegedly damaged the statue of Hazara leader Abdul Ali Mazari in Bamiyan, whom they killed back in 1995. In 2001, the Taliban had blown up the Budhha statues in Bamiyan. Pictures of the now desecrated statue in Bamiyan were widely shared on social media. Bamiyan is the same place where the Taliban had blown up the Budhha statues in 2001 on the orders of its then leader Mullah Mohammed Omar.
