Foreign desk: There have been several allegations of extrajudicial killings under Taliban rule. In August 2021, the Taliban captured Afghanistan. A general amnesty was announced by the Taliban, who were in power at the time.
Yet more than two hundred Afghan soldiers and officers were victims of extrajudicial killings, claimed the United Nations Mission in Afghanistan.
The United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) has released a report for the first time two years after the Taliban took power.
The agency says it has documented over 800 cases of serious human rights violations in the country, including arbitrary arrests and detentions, torture, torture, and enforced disappearances.
According to UNAMA, in the first four months of Taliban rule, hundreds of former government officials and members of the Afghan security forces were extrajudicially killed.
Apart from this, there have been allegations that in 2022, 70 more people became victims of extrajudicial killings. Violence in the country has not stopped yet.
It is clear from the UNAMA report that officials of the former administration and members of the Afghan army have been targeted and killed since the Taliban took power. United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk has claimed this in a statement.
