Human Rights Watch: The Ban on Visiting Band Amir is Disrespectful to Afghanistani Women

Human Rights Watch: The Ban on Visiting Band Amir is Disrespectful to Afghanistani Women

RASC News Agency: Following the ban on women visiting the Band Amir National Park in Bamyan province, Human Rights Watch called the Taliban’s new order disrespectful to Afghanistani women.

Mohammad Khaled Hanafi, the Minister of “Amr Bil Maruf” of the Taliban group, on August 26 announced during his visit to Bamyan province that after this, women will not be allowed to visit the Band Amir National Park.

Stating that “tourism is neither mandatory nor optional”, he said that the reason for this action is women’s disobedience to the “hijab order” for the past two years.

He asked the officials and members of the Taliban group in Bamyan province to implement the order “forbidding the presence of women in Band Amir “.

In response to this action of the Taliban group, Ferishta Abbasi, researcher of the Human Rights Watch, wrote on the X/Twitter social network: “This is a complete disrespect to the women of Afghanistan. Very bad and unpleasant.”

Richard Bennett, the special rapporteur of the United Nations Human Rights Council for Afghanistan, also took advantage of this order of the Taliban group and said that women’s rights are not negotiable.

He wrote on the X/Twitter social network: “Can someone explain why this restriction is necessary for women to visit Amir Dam to comply with Sharia and Afghanistan culture?”

Before this, the Taliban group had also banned women from going to public places of recreation. In addition, the Taliban group has imposed increasing restrictions on the people, especially the women of this country, after regaining control of Afghanistan.

Prohibiting the education of girls above the sixth grade, the study of women and girls in universities and higher education institutions, working in government offices except for a few departments, working in domestic and foreign non-governmental institutions, including the offices of the United Nations, going to public baths, stadiums and closing hair salons is part of the restrictions that the Taliban have imposed on women and girls.
