Taliban Intelligence in Kunduz Detain Female Journalist in Violation of Islamic Law.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Local sources in Kunduz province report that Nazara Rashidi, a female journalist, has been detained by Taliban intelligence forces for the past four days.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to these sources, Rashidi was arrested on Tuesday, 7 January 2026, around 8:00 a.m., after receiving a phone call and while leaving her home.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sources emphasize that her physical condition at the time of detention was not good and express serious concern for her health.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sources say that Nazara Rashidi had previously been threatened multiple times by unidentified individuals to cease her journalistic activities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following her detention, the Taliban command reportedly showed her family or close associates only a single photograph in which her hands and feet were bound with chains.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Human rights organizations and journalist protection groups have been urged to take immediate action to secure her release and ensure her safety.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This detention occurs in a context where, since the Taliban\u2019s return to power in Afghanistan, working conditions for journalists especially women have been severely restricted.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the past four years, many journalists have fled the country due to threats, pressure, and fear of Taliban retaliation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Concerns about journalist safety have intensified following statements by Mohammad Omar Makhlis, former Taliban commander in Paktia province, who admitted months ago in a gathering that the Taliban had intended to kill journalists, but many managed to escape.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
