Bennett Once Again Asks the Taliban to Release Women Protesters from Their Custody

RASC News Agency: Richard Bennett, the UN special rapporteur on human rights in Afghanistan, has once again called upon the Taliban group to release human rights defenders, including women protesters, who are currently imprisoned. On December 10th, which marked International Human Rights Day, Bennett conveyed his request through a message on his social media platform. He specifically urged the Taliban group to release four women protesters who have been detained since September 19th. Bennett emphasized that it is crucial for human rights defenders to be free from arrest and detention.

The four women protesters, namely Julia Parsi, Neda Parwani, Parisa Azada, and Manizha Sediqi, have been held in Taliban prisons for nearly three months. However, the group has not provided any information regarding their condition or the reasons behind their arrest. The United Nations Assistance Mission for Afghanistan (UNAMA) has previously expressed concern about the situation of women detained by the Taliban, highlighting their lack of access to legal representation and their inability to meet their families. These women are deprived of basic rights and facilities in the prisons controlled by the Taliban.

The Taliban group has faced numerous accusations of human rights violations, particularly against women and girls, since their rise to power in Afghanistan. The Permanent Representative of Afghanistan to the United Nations has stated that the group has stripped Afghanistani citizens of their fundamental rights. It is important to note that the Taliban group operates without any accountability to external institutions, further exacerbating the concerns surrounding their actions.
