The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom has stated that the Taliban have eradicated religious freedom in Afghanistan and called on the international community to support the countryâs religious minorities.
The chair of the commission, Vicky Hartzler, said:
She also warned that if refugees are returned to Afghanistan from various countries, all citizensâespecially religious minoritiesâwill face serious threats, including the risk of execution and physical punishment.
Hartzler further criticized the Talibanâs enforcement of the âAmr bil Ma’ruf wa Nahi an al-Munkarâ law, describing it as harsh and oppressive. She said it has excluded women from public life and placed religious minorities under severe threat.
