The Taliban has accused Prince Harry of killing "civilians and ordinary people" after the British royal admitted in his memoir "Spare" that he killed 25 Afghans during his Afghanistan visit.

Taliban leader Anas Haqqani told Al Jazeera on Friday that they checked and found that on the days on which Harry mentioned the killing of "25 mujaheddin," they did not have any casualties in Helmand.

Haqqani said it was clear that "civilians and ordinary people were targeted." He added that Harry's story was a part of the "many war crimes of the 20 years of Western military presence" in their country but was not the "whole picture of the crimes committed by them."

Haqqani accused the duke of committing "war crimes," noting that the royal killed "humans" and not "chess pieces."

He was referring to Harry's description of eliminating people like "chess pieces taken off the board." Harry also described the people as "enemy combatants."

Abdul Qahar Balkhi, a Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman, also slammed the duke's comments.

Balkhi said Prince Harry "is a microcosm of the trauma experienced by the Afghans" in the hands of internal forces who occupied Afghanistan.

Prince Harry on Killing 25 People

Another Taliban official, Suhail Shaheen, said Prince Harry "committed a crime against humanity."

He added that Harry should be questioned by the court for his crimes, adding that the people of Afghanistan "cursed" the British prince.

For his part, the prince said it was not something "that filled me with satisfaction." However, he noted that he was not "ashamed either."

Haqqani said he does not expect that the International Criminal Court will summon the prince nor the human rights activists condemn him as they are "deaf and blind for you."

Retired commanding officer former colonel Tim Collins has already scrutinized the book, saying it was a "tragic money-making scam."

Collins also accused Harry of "turning against" his military family after he "trashed his birth family."

He said the duke's revelation of killing people, like "removing chess pieces" from a board, was "not how you behave in the army," adding that it was not how they think.

Prince Harry's Memoir 'Spare'

Prince Harry has made several revelations in his book, including his first meeting with Camilla Parker Bowles, who made him feel like the spare and not the more important heir, and his deteriorating relationship with his brother, Prince William, among others.

Harry said in his memoir that he and his brother told King Charles III that they would not stand in the way if he decided to marry Camilla, now Queen Consort.

However, he and William reportedly begged Charles not to marry Camilla, who was allegedly Charles' mistress while he was married to Princess Diana.

Harry described meeting Camilla for the first time like an "injection," saying "close your eyes and you won't even feel it."

The duke said Camilla seemed "bored" when she met him for the first time, laying that down to the fact he was the spare and not a vital heir.

Prince Harry also talked about his mom's death, saying that he felt "like a politician" as he faced members of the public after Diana's death.

He also stated that he and William wanted to prompt an investigation into their mother's death but were deterred.
