KABUL: The acting Minister of Interior, Sirajuddin Haqqani in a meeting with the tribal elders from the southern provinces of Paktia, Khost and Paktika, emphasized that women must be granted their Shariah rights.
Haqqani was quoted by the Interior Ministry as saying that they are committed to the general amnesty announced by the supreme leader of the Islamic Emirate, Mawlawi Hebatullah Akhundzada after the Islamic Emirate swept into power.
Haqqani urged the tribal elders to take the rights of women seriously, in line with supreme leader Mawlawi Hebatullah Akhundzada’s decree, and to “eliminate those customs which are for the disenfranchisement of women.”
However, with the Islamic Emirate swept into power, many international organizations, including the UN expressed deep concerns in several reports over the situation of the Afghan women.
