According to the information provided in this report, 259 cases of human rights violations involved physical suffering and 207 cases involved mental suffering.
Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesman of the Taliban, has rejected the recent UNAMA report that more than 1,600 cases of human rights violations were recorded by this group “while arresting people” in Afghanistan.
By publishing a statement regarding this report, Zabihullah Mujahid said that in the prisons under Taliban rule, all services are provided for the prisoners and they are trained.
