The execution took place during heavy snowfall in the city of Sheberghan,
the capital of the Jawzjan province in the North. The brother of the murdered man
shot the prisoner five times with a rifle, witnesses said. This event also came with
N.A.T.O. planning to withdraw from Afghanistan after two decades of war. It was
also the fifth public execution since the Taliban seized power of Afghanistan in
August 2021.
The Taliban also executed two men on Thursday. These two were convicted
of stabbing a victim in the southeastern province of Ghazni. Relatives of the
victims shot the two men at a sports stadium as thousands of people watched.
Lastly, two other people were also flogged in eastern Laghman province
over the weekend. They received 30 lashes each for alleged immoral acts. The
United Nations has harshly criticized the Taliban's use of public executions,
floggings and stonings since they took power, and has called on the country's
rulers to end such practices.
