Afghan women will be publicly flogged and stoned to death for crimes like adultery, Talibans supreme leader Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzada has purportedly declared in a new audio message in which he also challenges Western democracies. The audio, released online by the national broadcaster, also announces the strict implementation of the Islamic code of Shariah.
You say its a violation of womens rights when we stone them (women) to death
But we will soon implement the punishment for adultery. We will flog women in public. We will stone them to death in public, Akhundzada declared.
These are all against your democracy but we will continue doing it. We both say we defend human rights we do it as Gods representative and you as the devils.
According to Akhundzada, womens rights as advocated by the international community are against the Talibans rigid interpretation of Islamic Sharia.
