Afghanistan: Taliban publicly executes varsity student
Kabul, Dec 3 (IBNS): Taliban loyalists have publicly executed a university student in Afghanistan's Maidan Wardak province, local Khaama Press reported.
Accusing the deceased of working for the government, the terror outfit reportedly hanged the student.
He was kidnapped by the group earlier, while the student was on his way to meet his family.
The group is yet to comment on the report.
The Taliban is infamous for similar cases, as abductions and murders take place frequently in Afghanistan.
