Kabul, Sep 28, 2021: The Taliban have executed a child in Takhar province of Afghanistan after they suspected him to be the son of a member of the resistance force that put up a fight since the takeover.

 

According to reports by Panjshir Observer, the child was executed by the Taliban. In a tweet, the independent local media outlet shared a video of the child lying dead in a pool of blood even as other kids cry around the body.

“Child executed in Takhar province by Taliban fighters after his father is suspected of being in the Resistance,” said the tweet by Panjshir Observer. The horrific video attached to the tweet the child’s motionless body lying on the street while three other children weep sitting next to the body.

The resistance forces, who fought the Taliban in the days since they took control of Kabul, have been defeated after they put up a spirited fight from the Panjshir Valley.

However, the Taliban surrounded the armed resistance group from all quarters and took control over Panjshir and gained complete power over Afghanistan.

Last week, the Taliban killed and hanged the bodies of four alleged kidnappers in full public view in Herat to teach a lesson to Afghans that kidnapping won’t be tolerated in the Taliban regime.
Horrific images of the four bodies hanging from cranes emerged on social media where hundreds of Afghans were seen staring at the corpses.

On Monday, the Taliban issued orders for barbers in Helmand province asking them to stop shaving and trimming the beards of Afghans, saying these practices are against Islamic law. The new diktat also said that the Afghans must stop following “American styles”.
