Taliban Flags 2 Political Parties, 75 Orgs for Security Review In Past Year

Sunday, 04/07/2024

The Taliban's Ministry of Justice has declared that two political parties and 75 social associations and charity organisations have been referred to the group's security agencies in the solar year 1402 due to "illegal activities."

Political party activities have been proscribed in Afghanistan by the Taliban.

On Sunday, the Ministry of Justice released a communiqué indicating a review of the activities of hundreds of social associations and charity organisations over the past year.

The ministry disclosed that various political parties and numerous social organisations were introduced to the group's security agencies.

The communiqué did not specify the names of these parties and organisations.

Over this period, the review of 36 additional charity organisations took place, with the operations of 19 organisations being terminated due to the untimely renewal of their operating licences.

This action aligns with the Taliban's prior warnings to political parties in Afghanistan to halt their activities.

Taliban officials have affirmed that engaging in political activities under the guise of a party is forbidden, and violators will be subject to "legal and Sharia" consequences.

Although the Taliban has repeatedly detained and incarcerated many for their civic and political engagements, the group has recently made an official proclamation banning the political activities of parties.
