3. Biodata:
Mrs. Hilla Mujtaba was born 1989 in Zurmat District, Paktia Province. She received 595 votes in Wolesi Jirga election 2018 and got a seat in WJ 2018.
Hela Mujtaba, is holding two national identity cards. Pajhwok Afghan News has obtained copies of both her ID cards, which carry different photos of the holder. Her first ID card has been issued from Zurmat district of Paktia province in 1387 year, with her age written 19 years and her second ID card has the address of Mata Khan district of Paktika province, issued in 1389 year, without change in her age. But Hela Mujtaba said she had lived in both the provinces of Paktia and Paktika and she owned land in the two provinces.

She said when she obtained her Tazkira in Zurmat district of Paktika, the province was part of Loya Paktia and her family had been living there. But later when Paktika was declared a separate province, her family arrived here and she made her ID card here as well because her family had the plan to migrate to Europe.

Hila Mujtaba, accused the Paktika governor, Elyas Wahdat, of mistreating one of her observers, Zahir Khan, at the governor’s house. The governor’s spokesman, Muhammad Ayaz, rejected the accusations as baseless.
 

A problem was that on 30 October 2018, the prosecutor’s office in Sharana detained five local reporters for publishing Mujtaba’s allegations. These journalists were detained for five hours at the prosecutor’s office.

Hela Mujataba did not bag a seat in WJ 2018 election.
