Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Taliban Supreme Court on Tuesday announced that a court in Afghanistan\u2019s north-eastern province of Kapisa publicly whipped two men accused of robbery.<\/p>\n

The Supreme Court said that each convict, (name withheld) received 30 lashes. In addition, one convict was sentenced to three years in prison and another to one and a half years.<\/p>\n

Court officials and residents witnessed the whippings, the statement added.<\/p>\n

The Taliban\u2019s return to power in Afghanistan has seen the reintroduction of public punishments, including execution and flogging, for various crimes like murder, robbery and adultery.<\/p>\n

Since August 2021, the Taliban courts had publicly executed five men convicted of murder.<\/p>\n

In spite of criticism by rights organisations, Taliban officials said that the implementation of sharia, or strict Islamic law, is essential to reducing crimes and ensuring public safety.<\/p>\n
