The clash is said to have taken place on bygone Friday (3 September), following which Pakistani ISI chief Lt Gen Faiz Hameed had to rush to Kabul to contain the situation acting as a troubleshooter between the two outfits. The fight is said to have broken out due to a power struggle between Baradar and Anas Haqqani.
