Taliban justify protest ban as Islamic law
The Taliban government defended the decision to ban protests in Afghanistan, considering it consistent with Islamic law and aimed at protecting people and preventing property destruction. The government spokesperson emphasized that protests are not permitted under Sharia and that the system encourages individuals to address their grievances directly to the government rather than through demonstrations. Human rights organizations such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International criticized this ban, describing it as a harsh measure to suppress dissent, especially as injuries and killings have been reported during previous protests, despite their infrequency.
