In August 2021, US forces completely withdrew from Afghanistan. Subsequently, the democratic regime there was overthrown and the Taliban regime came into effect. After this regime change, complaints regarding human rights violations are constantly arising in Afghanistan. Over the past year, the Taliban has been slowly taking steps against gender equality, and has imposed strict restrictions under Islamic Sharia law.
In this case, the sensational incident in Logar province of the country where 14 people were flogged by the Taliban in a public place has caused a shock. Out of these 14, 11 are male and 3 are female. The Taliban have held that they were involved in theft and moral crimes. The flogging was carried out in the presence of more than 100 people in the field of Bal Alam in Logar province. For this reason, the Taliban has invited the people of the area to come and witness the execution of the punishment.

Accordingly, 21 to 39 lashes were given to the 14 people who were punished in public. At the same time, it was forbidden for the group of visitors to take photos or videos. Human rights organizations have strongly condemned this incident. At the same time, the supreme leader of the country, Hibatullah Agunzada, has ordered that the Islamic Sharia law should be fully implemented in Afghanistan by this month. Hence, such stringent restrictions and penalties are expected to increase there.
