Taliban Dissolves Pharmaceutical and Private Hospital Associations Amid Corruption Allegations

Published 23/04/2025
SHARE

RASC News Agency: The Taliban’s Ministry of Justice has officially disbanded the national unions representing pharmaceutical companies and private hospitals in Afghanistan, accusing them of pervasive corruption and illegal commercial practices. In a meeting with officials from both sectors, Taliban Justice Minister Abdul Hakim Sharie announced the decision, asserting that many private hospitals operate primarily for profit and routinely provide substandard and unregulated services to the public.

Minister Sharie further alleged that several pharmaceutical companies have been importing and distributing expired or low-quality medicines, thereby endangering public health. He underscored that such practices are unacceptable and pose a serious risk to the wellbeing of Afghanistani citizens. The minister also issued a stark warning to members of the now-dissolved associations, stating that some medical facilities and pharmacies have been selling medications at inflated prices based on forged documentation an act contributing to an unsustainable surge in medicine prices across the country.

In light of these developments, the Ministry of Justice announced its intention to establish new, more accountable unions to regulate the pharmaceutical and private healthcare sectors. These new entities will, according to the ministry, aim to eliminate malpractice and reinforce ethical standards within the medical field. Minister Sharie emphasized that the Taliban government is committed to rooting out corruption and exploitation in Afghanistan’s healthcare system. He vowed decisive action against hospitals and pharmacies found guilty of abusing patients for financial gain, stressing the regime’s goal to build a more transparent, accessible, and functional national health infrastructure.
