Adultery in the vicinity of Kaaba
Esmatullah, one of Haji Zaman’s commanders takes her children’s young lady-teacher to Hajj (pilgrimage). On the way, they stay in one room. When other pilgrims come to know that the girl is not related to the commander and he has just taken her for pleasure, they protest that commander Esmatullah has committed adultery and must be punished according to the Islamic law. But Haji Zaman and other Jehadis drop the case and keep silent, because they know that they will be involved too.
"Women in their houses or in the grave"
Taliban style cruelty
On 17 August 1995 Abdullah a resident of Balahesar of Ghazni province arranged a party to celebrate his marriage and people were listening to music. Meanwhile a group of Taliban broke into the house and started beating bride and groom because they, according to them, by listening to music acted against Islam. Then they mounted the ill-fated bride and groom on a donkey and rode them in nearby areas asking the people to watch them and take a lesson. With this cruel act, Taliban changed a marriage day to an awful mourning.
On Jan. 22,1996 a lady was hit by Taliban vehicle. People went to governor of Herat for investigation. The governor said that "we keep telling you that women don't have the right to go outside their houses. If she was a man we could investigate the case. It is a good lesson to other women not to go outside of their houses. "WOMEN IN THEIR HOUSES OR IN THE GRAVE".
Women’s self-immolation
under the Taliban’s
domination
Forced marriages always create a lot of untold problems for the families and particularly for those girls who do not have the right to choose their husband. Khadija d/o M.Auob resident of Darabad village, Farah province, in her very childhood had been given to Mirwais of the same village by her father. After marriage, irreconcilable differences appeared among them. Mirwais, being a drunk and adulterer, always put his wife under physical and mental torture. A month ago he forcibly took all the jewellery of Khadija and lost it in gambling. Against all these pressures and brutal oppression, Khadija, who couldn’t find any authority to seek justice under the Taliban’s domination, burnt herself to death by spraying kerosene on her body. The second incident also took place in the same village about three months ago. Sher Ahmad resident of Darabad village had her under-aged daughter Zhara married to a resident of Dozak village of Farah province and in return tied the nuptial knot of the said boy’s sister to his son. As Zhara, from the very beginning, not willing to enter that forced marriage, returned to her father’s home but, of course, by threatening and beating her up, she had been sent to her husband’s home. She then poured a gallon full of petrol on her body and put herself on fire. On her way to hospital in Zabul, Iran, she succumbed to injuries.
