Taliban militants set Afghan woman on fire for bad cooking: Reports

Aug 21: After taking over Afghanistan by the Taliban on 15 August, news of inhuman atrocities and horror are off and on reported from Taliban. An Afghan woman was reportedly set on fire by Taliban fighters because they weren’t satisfied with a meal she prepared. Najla Ayoubi, who lives in the US after “fleeing for my life” from the Taliban, said she has heard horrific examples of violence against women since the militants took control of her homeland. She said one woman was “put on fire because she was accused of bad cooking for Taliban fighters” in the north of the country.

A former judge, Najla Ayoubi, told Sky News that she had received multiple reports of violence against women by the insurgent group. She said, “They are forcing people to give them food and cook them food. Also, there are so many young women in the past few weeks being shipped into neighbouring countries in coffins to be used as sex slaves.”
