Taliban Official Says Strict Punishment And Executions will be given to the culprits

 Taliban announces harsh executions in Afghanistan, such as re-execution and amputation

The Taliban government's religious police chief says harsh punishments such as the death penalty and amputation of hands will now be repeated in Afghanistan.

Mullah Nooruddin Turabi, in charge of prisons in the Taliban government, told the Associated Press (AP) that punishments such as amputation of hands were "necessary for security."

He said the sentences would probably no longer be given in public, as was the case under the previous Taliban regime in the 1990s.

However, he rejected criticism of public executions in the past, saying "no one needs to tell us what our laws should be."

Since taking control of Afghanistan on August 15, the Taliban have reiterated that their current regime will not be tougher than in the past. However, there have been reports of human rights abuses in various parts of the country.

"It is clear in the Shari'a that those who are unmarried and have sex with a non-mahram, whether it is a boy or a girl, are punishable by 100 lashes in public," he said. But those who are married and have sex with someone else should be stoned to death. In the same way, whoever steals and is found guilty, his hand should be cut off.

During the 1990s, executions were carried out in public at Kabul's sports stadium or on the main Eidgah grounds. In the then Taliban government, Mullah Nooruddin Turabi was the Minister of Justice and the head of the Taliban's religious police.

Russia will not participate in Taliban government inauguration l Taliban finalize Afghanistan government formation

Russia will not participate in the inauguration ceremonies of the Taliban government.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Russia was not involved in the Taliban government's swearing-in ceremony in Afghanistan.

"We do not want this to change," he said. Similarly, you think it is important to look at the current situation in Afghanistan.

Earlier in the week, the speaker of Russia's upper house of parliament had said that Russia was needed at the level of the oath-taking trip.

On Thursday, President Vladimir Putin said that Russian will contact other countries to withdraw from Afghan citizens.

A report in Moscow said that many people even go to Afghanistan to help some Afghans. We are not hiding it. We are contacting the Taliban.

Afghans in Pakistan Fear for Refugees l Where does the world stand on Afghan refugees l Impact of Afghan refugees on Pakistani society

 Taliban in Afghanistan: Why are 'refugees' Afghan people not going to Pakistan?

Rakhshanda is a physician, her spouse an Afghan police officer. She moved to Pakistan with her 3 kids over the Chaman border when the Taliban took over Kabul. He has a passport in Afghanistan but no visa in Pakistan and is now concerned about his position in Pakistan.

The Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, previously hosting the highest number of migrants in the world, declares that his nation can no longer afford to welcome any more Afghan refugees.

On the other side, the Pakistani Government says that 3 million Afghan refugees, half of whom are not registered, are already accommodated.

According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the number of registered Afghan refugees in Pakistan is 1.4 million; Afghan citizenship cards have been given to 880,000 Afghans, indicating that they are Afghan nationals residing in Pakistan whereas Afghans are four- or five million. No registrations of any sort are available.

Pakistan's National Security Consultant Dr. Moeed Yousaf said 20,000 to 25,000 Afghans arrived in Pakistan every day from Afghanistan, while Interior Minister Sheik Rashid Ahmed said there was no Afghan refugee in Pakistan thus far.

Who declared refugees to be foreigners?

The Geneva Convention for Refugees exists to define who a refugee is and who is not, and what are the privileges of the host country and the obligations of the host country to determine international law. The legislation pertained initially to refugees who were afflicted by World War II, but its reach was expanded by the Protocol of 1967 to include the border and residents of all nations.

The Convention makes it the host country's duty to determine whether or not to provide refuge to a foreigner entering its territory. At present, 149 nations are members of either or one of the conventions worldwide.

However, the Convention has not been signed by Pakistan, thus it does not apply to Pakistan. The Geneva Convention on Refugees has 51 nations worldwide, including Pakistan, India, and Afghanistan and it is the duty of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to designate aliens 'refugees' in these countries. It is done with the host nation in consultation.

What is Pakistan's status as Afghan citizens?

Home Minister Sheik Rashid Ahmed claims that Pakistan has not registered as a refugee a single Afghan person since Kabul has been taken over by the Taliban. He could not, however, predict if Pakistan would do so in the coming years.

When questioned about the status of Afghan nationals who travel to Pakistan, Sheik Rashid stated they were not refugees from Afghanistan but Afghans who come to Pakistan for trading, employment, education, and treatment.

Qaisar Afridi, spokesperson for the Un Un Refugee Agency (UNHCR) in Pakistan has nonetheless said that it was the UN's duty to label Afghan people refugees in Pakistan, although in the past it has contacted the Government of Pakistan. What was happening later.
