No revealing slipper, women not allowed to go out alone: Talibani diktat

A s the women in Afghanistan, escpecially those who grew up in a Taliban-free country, fear a Taliban-dominated future, familie s that have taken refuge in Kabul bear testimony to the regressive diktat the insurgent group ha s already started issuing.

According to a report by the Associated Press, a schoolteacher from Takhar province in northern Afghanistan said that after Taliban capture, women were not allowed to go out to the market without a male escort.

Girl s riding home in a motorised rickshaw in the Takhar province were stopped and lashed for wearing "revealing sandals", the report said quoting familie s who have left their homeland and now took refuge in Kabul -- on the sidewalk, in the park.
