· 3 min read · 646 views

FIROZKOH (Pajhwok): Local officials and the Ulema Council of western Ghor province on Sunday condemned the stoning of Rukhshana and called the action as “un-Islamic and inhuman.”

On Oct. 25, local Taliban publicly stoned to death the 19-year-old over alleged adultery with an unmarried man, who was also whipped in Awdak Ghaleem village on the outskirts of Ferozkoh, the provincial capital.

A short video clip of the stoning scene allegedly shows Taliban militants hurling stones at the girl, but the militants have so far not commented about the incident.
