Afghanistan: Taliban issuing ‘new’ laws in captured districts

| @indiablooms | 03 Jul 2021, 05:28 pm

Kabul: Civil society activists have claimed Taliban militants have started new laws and regulations in recently captured Takhar province of Afghanistan, media reports said on Saturday.

The activists said the Taliban have ordered men to grow their beards, banned women from leaving home alone, and have set dowry regulations for girls, reports The News International.

“They urged women in a statement to not leave home without a male relative,” Merajuddin Sharifi, a civil society activist in Takhar, told the Pakistani newspaper.

Sharifi added that the “Taliban insist on trials without evidence.”

“People are facing problems there; services are nonexistent, clinics, and schools are closed,” Mohammad Azam Afzali, a member of the Takhar provincial council. Takhar governor meanwhile told the newspaper that government buildings have been destroyed by the Taliban and services have been stopped in areas controlled by Taliban.

The Taliban has been increasing its dominance in several provinces of Afghanistan since foreign troops started to move out of Afghanistan.
