Taliban Expel Fighter after Bamyani Girl’s Tragic Death: investigation underway

Local sources have reported that the Taliban expelled a fighter who forcibly placed a young Bamyani girl onto a military vehicle and referred him to the military prosecutor.

After being released from Taliban detention, the girl tragically committed suicide. The Taliban delayed her burial for several days, raising additional concerns.

Reports indicate that the Taliban have yet to detain the soldier involved. Speculation suggests that the expulsion may be an attempt to suppress potential protests.

The case has been forwarded to the military prosecutor, but specific details regarding charges or legal proceedings are currently unavailable.

The exact charges against the Taliban fighter are unknown, and the circumstances of the incident are still under investigation.

The incident began when the Taliban fighter forcibly placed the girl onto his military vehicle while she was traveling from the Punjab market to her home.

Following this, the group’s intelligence agents detained the girl’s father and brother. The family was transported to the Bamyan provincial capital, where the girl was interrogated for at least three days.

The reasons for the Taliban fighter’s actions and the subsequent arrest of the girl’s family are unclear, as is whether formal charges were filed against the family in Bamyan.

Reports revealed that the 19-year-old girl experienced severe mental distress after her detention and interrogation, worsened by the closure of her sewing workshop.

Her sewing workshop in the Punjab market was shut down by the Taliban’s Department of Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice following her detention.

Since the Taliban took control of Afghanistan, they have banned education for girls beyond the sixth grade, leading to immense pressure on women and girls and resulting in widespread violations of women’s rights.

The tragic case of the Bamyani girl underscores critical issues regarding the treatment of women and girls under Taliban rule.

The delay in burying her body and the lack of clarity about the charges against the fighter highlights broader concerns about human rights abuses and the suppression of women’s rights in Afghanistan.

This incident emphasizes the urgent need for ongoing international scrutiny and advocacy to address and prevent such abuses.
