UN General Assembly To Discuss Situation of Afghan Women, Says UNSG

On Wednesday, Kakar said that although many of these immigrants have valid documentation, they are still in limbo.

According to Kakar, these refugees have been detained since September 9. She added that on Wednesday, about 100 of these immigrants were presented to the court.

Many of these people have considered Pakistan as "home" since 1990, Kakar added.

She stressed that the rights of refugees and legal processes should be supported.

This lawyer mentioned the story of Mohammad, an Afghan immigrant in Pakistan, who has a valid residence card and yet the Pakistani police arrested him as an "illegal" immigrant and confiscated his card.

Kakar quoted Kala Khan, another Afghan immigrant in Pakistan, who wrote that he has been living in Karachi since the past thirty years, but Karachi police demanded bribe, and when the immigrant refused to pay the amount, they confiscated his card and arrested him.

In recent months, Pakistani police has increased detention of Afghan immigrants.

After the Taliban’s takeover of power in Afghanistan, a significant number of citizens immigrated to Pakistan.

Human rights organisations have previously expressed concern about the detention and situation of Afghan immigrants in Pakistan.

He also called for the provision of the rights of Afghan women and girls and their participation in development and achievements of Afghanistan over the past twenty years.

At the meeting of the United Nations Human Rights Council, Pandey added that his country has so far supplied 50,000 tonnes of wheat, 28 tonnes of relief items to the victims of natural disasters, 200 tonnes of medicines, vaccines and other sanitary items to Afghanistan.

Pandey also said that India in collaboration with the United Nations has provided 1,100 feminine hygiene kits to women rehabilitation centers.

The United Nations Human Rights Council started its 54th session on Monday. A major part of the discussion on the first day of this summit had been devoted to the situation in Afghanistan.

Bilal Karimi, Taliban’s Deputy Spokesperson said that a special reception ceremony for Zhao Xing, the new Chinese ambassador, was held in the Arg (presidential palace) with the presence of the group's prime minister, Mullah Hasan Akhund.

It seems that this is the first public and official meeting of the Taliban Prime Minister after his return from Kandahar. Mullah Hassan Akhund returned to Kabul on July after a two-month absence.

Since returning to Kabul, he has not attended official meetings. Recently, Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid told the media that Mullah Hasan Akhund has health issues.

Bilal Karimi on Wednesday said that Zhao Xing, in a meeting with the officials of the group, said that China respects the territorial integrity and independence of Afghanistan.

According to the Taliban, Xing stressed that China does not follow the policy of interference in the Afghanistan affairs.

Former Chinese ambassador to Afghanistan, Wang Yu's term ended last month.

Karimi, quoting the Chinese ambassador to Afghanistan, has written that he is trying to expand political and economic relations and cooperation between China and Taliban.

Akhund has also said that by appointment of Xing as ambassador, diplomatic relations between China and Afghanistan will expand.

In this meeting, Taliban’s Prime Minister said that the relations between the two countries have seen new developments after the group's takeover of power in Afghanistan.

China is one of the countries that has close relations with the Taliban. This country has been eyeing Afghanistan's mines for the past two years and has signed several mining contracts with the Taliban.

Saber's relatives have also confirmed his death.

So far, the motive behind his murder is not clear.

A source said that he was one of the companions and commanders of Piram Qol Ziaee and was probably killed due to personal enmity.

On the other hand, in the past two years, commanders and former security forces members have also been killed in the same way, which was attributed to revenge killing of Taliban members.

During a speech at the Stimson Center on Tuesday, West said that the Taliban have killed at least eight ISIS-K commanders in Afghanistan in the past two years and that ISIS-K attacks on civilians, especially members of Hazara ethnic group, have decreased.

He added that he does not want to "exaggerate" the impact of the Taliban crackdown on ISIS-K activities, but ISIS-K attacks on civilians are not as often as before.

A day after the anniversary of the September 11 attack in 2001 by Al-Qaeda, the US representative delivered a speech at this center regarding the withdrawal of US forces and its impact on Afghanistan.

According to West, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) is now a security threat in the region.

Pakistan has accused the Afghan Taliban of not being able to control the Pakistani militia staying in Afghanistan. The sharp increase in terrorist attacks in Pakistan has been attributed to the activities of TTP and their freedom of action in Afghanistan following the return of the Taliban to power in Afghanistan.

So far, Washington has not taken a position regarding Islamabad's requests to the Taliban to prevent the infiltration and attacks of Pakistani militia. Also, in the past two years, Washington has not seriously criticised the Taliban's relationship with the TTP and other militant groups, which are considered a threat by the regional countries.
