RASC News Agency: Tamana Zaryab Pariyani, an Afghanistani civil activist, went on a hunger strike in Germany to get the gender apartheid of the Taliban recognized by the United Nations and the international community.
Mrs. Paryani announced the beginning of her hunger strike in the city of Cologne, Germany, on Friday, September 1, and said that she will continue this strike for 12 days.
Mrs. Paryani says that Afghanistani women have been struggling with increasing torture and violence from this group since the Taliban took over, and they have been deprived of all their human rights because of their gender.
She added that gender apartheid is imposed by the Taliban group in Afghanistan and asked the international community, especially Germany, to recognize this gender apartheid of the Taliban group.
Mrs. Paryani asked the German government not to interact with the Taliban group.
Ms. Paryani and her four sisters are civil activists who were arrested by the Taliban intelligence in Kabul about one and a half years ago for supporting the rights of women under the rule of the Taliban group.
They spent 26 days in the Taliban prison and left the country after being released.
This is despite the fact that the Taliban group has always violated the basic rights of Afghanistani women and deprived them of their most basic rights since they took over the country.
Meanwhile, human rights defenders have repeatedly asked the international community to recognize the treatment of Afghanistani women by the Taliban as gender apartheid.
