A woman has been whipped by the Taliban in Sar-e Pol for an extramarital relationship
The Talban's Supreme Court has announced that a woman in Sar-e Pol province has been sentenced to one year in prison and 39 lashes on charges of an extramarital relationship. This sentence was carried out on Wednesday, April 9, after being confirmed by the court and based on the Talban's enforced laws.
This ruling comes amid ongoing criticism from human rights groups regarding the Talban's laws on women's rights and the manner of implementing punishments. International observers have repeatedly emphasized that such punishments are considered violations of human rights and international law.
