Speaking at a briefing, Stéphane Dujarric said that the UNAMA is concerned that the ongoing restrictions on Afghan women will further isolate them and will lead to an increase in family violence.
“The UN Mission fears the current crackdown is pushing women into even greater isolation due to fear of arbitrary arrest and creating a permissive environment for men to enforce repressive measures at home,” said Stéphane Dujarric the spokesman for the UN Chief.
The Islamic Emirate on the other hand denied the detentions of women and added that the government is committed to fighting against family violence.
“If we witness any kind of violence, the relevant bodies will act and sisters are immune to any kind of attack. Families should also be cautious, there exist laws and implementing administrations in country,” Zabiullah Mujahid, the spokesperson of the Islamic Emirate, told TOLOnews.
“Providing physical and mental security is one of the main obligations of the government, both at the society and family level,” Zakiullah Muhammadi, a university lecturer, told TOLOnews.
The acting minister of vice and virtue has denied any women’s arrests for alleged improper dress code and called the allegations “propaganda” against the Islamic Emirate.
