Toilers Organisation of Afghanistan

Toilers Organisation of Afghanistan ( _fa. سازمان زحمتکشان افغانستان, abbreviated سزا, transliterated "Sazman-e Zahmatkashan-e Afghanistan", 'SeZA') was a leftwing group in Afghanistan. It was formed by PDPA dissidents, which had broken away from the PDPA in the late 1970s.http://www.kas.de/db_files/dokumente/7_dokument_dok_pdf_9674_2.pdf] The leader of the organisation was Hamdullah Gran. The party was mainly based amongst Pashtuns. [ [http://www.hrw.org/reports/1991/afghanistan/AFGHAN.htm AFGHAN ] ]

In November 1987 SeZA was able to assume overground activities and joined the PDPA-led Union of Left-Democratic Parties. However, a dissident SeZA faction, led by Zaman Gul Dehati, remained underground. This grouping would later become the Alliance of Peace and Progress Fighters of Afghanistan.
