Shortly after his election Esmatullah Mohabat was killed along with four of his bodyguards in a gun battle following a dispute with a firewood merchant in Deh Ziarat. The merchant, Haji Sardar had accused Mohabat of burning down one of his stockpiles. Esmatullah was the second newly elected MP to be gunned down following the election. Abdul Hadi Wahidi was elected on the seat vacated due to the death of Esmatullah Muhabbat.(20070314) Shortly following Mohabat's killing his brother, Haji Naqibullah Mohabat accused provincial officials of complicity in his brother's killing, suggesting that the entire Laghman police establishment had been behind the conspiracy.
