Taliban Publicly Lash Individual in Ghazni Province

Published 03/11/2024
SHARE

RASC News Agency: Sources from Ghazni report that the Taliban publicly lashed a man in the province on charges of “extramarital relations.” The Taliban’s Supreme Court issued a statement confirming that the individual had been subjected to “39 lashes” in the Qarabagh district of Ghazni province. This incident follows a series of public lashings carried out by the Taliban in recent weeks, with four individuals reportedly subjected to similar punishments in Kabul and Ghazni provinces.

 

Over the past month alone, the Taliban have publicly lashed more than 80 individuals, including several women, across multiple provinces for various alleged offenses. The United Nations, in its most recent quarterly report covering the period from July to September, revealed that 111 individuals were publicly flogged by the Taliban across Afghanistan. According to the report, those punished included 95 men, 15 women, and one girl. Last month, the United Nations Human Rights Council condemned the Taliban’s use of corporal punishment and called for an immediate halt to such practices. Numerous human rights organizations have also repeatedly condemned these actions, describing them as abhorrent violations of fundamental rights.

 

Amnesty International has voiced serious concerns, noting that the absence of a fair judicial system under Taliban rule has escalated human rights abuses. The organization highlighted the pressing issue of citizens being deprived of access to justice and due process. Despite widespread international condemnation, the Taliban remain unwilling to end their practice of public beatings and corporal punishment. Reports indicate that the group continues to carry out arbitrary lashings, detentions, and torture, often without any form of judicial oversight.
