KABUL: The crowd of women marching through the Afghan capital on Tuesday, accused the Taliban authorities who constantly killed soldiers who served the former US-supported regime.
About 30 women gathered near a mosque in the center of Kabul and lined up several hundred meters of songs “justice, justice” before they were stopped by the Taliban troops, AFP correspondent saw.
Taliban also tried to prevent journalists from covering the parade, organized against “the mysterious murder of young people, especially the former soldiers”, according to social media invitations.
Taliban Fighters briefly detained a group of journalists and confiscated equipment from several photographers, deleting images from their camera before returning it.
Since the hardline returned to power in August they had effectively prohibited protests that were not examined and often intervened to block demonstrations against their hard Islamic brands.
Protests came a few weeks after a separate report by the United Nations, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch said there were creed charges of more than 100 extraordinary murders by their Taliban since their takeover.
“I want to tell the world, tell the Taliban to stop killing.
We want freedom, we want justice, we want human rights,” said Protester Nayera Koahistan.
In a statement read hard by Protester Laila Basam, the demonstrators called the Taliban “to stop the criminal engine”.
The statement said the former soldiers and government employees from the old regime were “under direct threat”, violating the general amnesty announced by the Taliban in August.
The protesters also accused objections to the restrictions on the ratcheting faced by women under the Taliban rule.
The government issued a new guideline on weekends that prohibit women from long-distance trips unless escorted by relatives of close men.
“Women’s rights are human rights.
We must defend our rights,” Koahistan said.
Video recording posted online on Tuesday shows other women’s protests held elsewhere in the capital who also asks women to be allowed to be allowed for education and employment.
