"Save, the Taliban entered my home": Opposition activist disappeared live | Israel today

The Taliban authorities in Afghanistan have arrested an opposition activist in the country after protesting against the treatment of members of the extremist organization, which has ruled the country since September, and the arrest was recorded live by the activist on the social network Facebook.

Tamana Zaribi Periani, a resident of the Praun neighborhood in the capital Kabul, went out with dozens of women to demonstrate last week against the Taliban authorities' continued actual ban on women getting an education or working.

The demonstrators were attacked with pepper spray and some were electrocuted by Taliban members who violently dispersed the demonstration.

That evening, the social activist connected to the network and uploaded a video, during which the Taliban entered her home.

Periani is heard calling on gunmen, who were not seen in the video, to leave her home.

"You can not enter, only me and my sisters are here. You must not enter here," Periani exclaimed.

"Save me, the Taliban entered my house. I beg for help," the woman turned to the surfers.

Then the camera turns towards the door and Friani is heard saying "We do not want you here. Come tomorrow, we can talk tomorrow".

After these things the broadcast closes.

World media tried to find out what happened to the social activist but the Taliban refused to comment and her relatives claim they have not heard from her since she was arrested.

This is not the first time Taliban members have arrested or abducted prominent women who oppose their rule.

Since coming to power with the overthrow of the country's democratic government in September, the Taliban has closed girls' schools, banned women from attending university and taken all women working in state institutions on unpaid leave.

The Ministry of Women's Affairs closed and in its establishment the organization established an office for "modesty and morality" whose role is to punish women who do not obey Sharia law.

All the steps taken by the organization were justified for security reasons and not through legislation, in order to try to present to the world a different appearance from that taken by the Taliban regime in the early 2000s, a regime during which women were outlawed and adulterous women were publicly executed.
