In a message on the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, a number of Afghan women protesters criticised the indifference of the international community, Afghanistan International reports (Afintl.com).
They said that the international community and UNAMA have not taken serious and effective action against the Taliban's "crimes against humanity" so far.
The Purple Saturdays Movement said in a statement on Monday, November 25, that the international community has used "behind-the-scenes diplomacy, under the guise of interaction and relations with the de facto government, to demorally reduce sanctions and pressures against the group based on its political and economic interests”.
The movement said that the Taliban has turned Afghanistan into a hell of systematic oppression and violence for Afghan women and girls over the past three years.
The Purple Saturdays Movement has criticised that despite repeated calls from human rights activists, women's rights groups, and protest movements, no decisive and serious steps have been taken to prosecute Taliban leaders.
These protesting women called on the international community and the United Nations General Assembly to fulfill their obligations towards women.
