History

In 1924, Sulaimankhel took part in the khost Rebellion started by the Dustukhel sub-tribe of Sulaimankhel. The population of this tribe mainly lives in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and parts of India. Alikhel, Umer Khel, is a brother tribe of the Slemakhel tribe. Former Paktika governor Gulab Mangal said Sulaimankhel provided most of the Taliban's recruits in the province. As a result, the level of activity of anti-coalition militias remains high in areas controlled by Sulemankhel. The prejudice of some sub-tribes against the Taliban may be explained, in part, by their proximity to the Pakistani border, influx of insurgents and extremist politics. Umer Khel is also one of the well-known tribes of Pakistan along with a few other tribes. They have allied with the Hotaki in the past, and their traditional rivals include the kharoti. The main subdivisions of Slemankhel include , (Sultankhel), (Khazarkhel), (Nazarkhel), (Alizai), (Dustukhel), (Slemanzai), (Ahmadzai), (Jalalzai), and (Kasarkhel). included. Other subdivisions include (Alikhel), (Nizamkhel), and (Dinnarkhel), with Shakhel, who live primarily in northwestern Paktika, being more cooperative with the central government and coalition forces. Nizamkhel and Shakhel also continue to be more supportive of the government, which may be partially explained by their conflict with Jalalzai.
