Kabul (TIP): The Taliban carried out a double public execution at a stadium in south-eastern Afghanistan on February 22. Thousands watched the killing of two convicted men, as their victims’ relatives fired the gunshot. The Taliban’s Supreme Court had ruled that the pair were responsible for the stabbing deaths of two victims in separate attacks.
It identified the two as Syed Jamal from central Wardak province and Gul Khan from Ghazni. Meanwhile, the United Nations criticised the Taliban and called on the country’s rulers to halt such practices. — AP
