POBNEWS24, Desk report Sep 26,2021 :The United States has reacted sharply to recent statements by the Taliban on the implementation of Sharia law in Afghanistan. The law provides for amputation and execution on criminal charges. This information was given in the report of the news agency ANI.
Ned Price, a spokesman for the US State Department, said the law was a clear violation of human rights. They are working with the international community to ensure human rights in Afghanistan.
“We are not only monitoring the Taliban’s statements, they are also monitoring their activities in Afghanistan,” Ned Price said.
Mullah Nooruddin Torabi, the Taliban-appointed Afghan prison chief, recently said they would enforce the law in the country in the late 1990s, which includes provisions for amputation and execution. The United States responded immediately to his remarks.
Four kidnappers were killed in a “gun battle” in the western Afghan city of Herat after their bodies were hung on a crane by the Taliban on Saturday.
Herat Deputy Governor Mawlawi Shir Ahmed Muhajir said the bodies of four people had been displayed at various public places. Kidnapping will not be tolerated in any way এমন this has been done to teach.
Last month, the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan. Earlier this month, they announced the formation of a government.
This is the first time since the Taliban took power that the harshest punishment has taken place in Afghanistan. The incident suggests that the Taliban, which was in power from 1996 to 2001, will now re-establish its extremism.
The United States stands by Afghan journalists, civil rights activists, women, children, human rights activists and people with disabilities, State Department spokesman Ned Price said. The United States has called on the Taliban to ensure their rights.
