The Taliban minister said that “outings are not compulsory for women.” He was angry that the women who visited the park were wearing the wrong hijab.
The Taliban, who seized power in Afghanistan, continue to expand the ban on women. Now they are not allowed to visit Band-e-Amir National Park, according to The Guardian.
The Acting Minister of the so-called Ministry of Vices and Virtues Mohammad Khalid Hanafi said that “outings are not compulsory for women.” The reason is that the women visiting the park do not follow the correct way of wearing the hijab.
In the past, the Taliban have closed most girls’ high schools, banned women from attending university, and taken away the jobs of women working for humanitarian organizations. Many public places, including bathhouses, gyms, beauty salons and parks, are also closed to women.
It can be recalled that the Taliban recently ordered the closure of all beauty salons in Afghanistan.
And since last spring, Afghan women can leave the house only if they have “important business”, and only in a burqa, otherwise they must stay indoors.
