Taliban Justifies Protest Ban as Islamic Law
The Taliban government defended its decision to ban protests in Afghanistan, considering it to be in accordance with Islamic law. Their spokesperson claimed that protests are not present in Sharia and that the regime prefers to establish direct channels with the government rather than through demonstrations. Human rights organizations such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International responded to the ban, describing it as a repressive measure aimed at suppressing opposition. They stated that it is part of a series of actions that tighten restrictions on human rights in the country. Despite the limited number of protests, incidents of violence occurred, resulting in the deaths of at least two people during women's demonstrations in June, reflecting a decline in rights and freedoms under Taliban rule.
