Taliban prohibits unauthorised protests in Afghanistan, promising security to approved demonstrations but warning 'severe' punishment to those violating its new decree

Demonstrators will need prior authorisations from the interim Justice Ministry and violators"will face severe legal action", says a new order, which does not clarify an end period to the decree.

The Interior Ministry of the new Taliban government issued an order on Wednesday to end all protests in the country — unless demonstrators get prior permission, including approval of slogans and banners. Since then small groups of women have staged rallies in three cities, including Herat, Mazar-e-Sharif and Kabul, demanding that their rights be protected.

In the words of the ministry's statement: "It i s announced to all citizens not to attempt at the present time to hold any demonstrations under any name whatsoever."In the capital Kabul, a small rally on Wednesday was quickly dispersed by armed Taliban security, while Afghan media reported a protest in the northeastern city of Faizabad was also broken up.

The complaints range from women barred from going to work without a male guardian or even leaving their homes to attacks on centers helping women who flee violence and on girls' and coeducational schools.
