Taliban Leader Hibatullah Akhundzada Bans Windows Overlooking Homes of Women, Mandates Blocking Existing Windows
Dec 29, 2024, 01:05 PM
Hibatullah Akhundzada, the leader of the Taliban, has issued a new directive prohibiting the construction of residential windows that overlook neighboring homes, particularly those where women reside. This regulation aims to protect the privacy of women and prevent potential harm, as stated by Taliban authorities. The decree specifies that property owners must block existing windows that provide views into homes occupied by women. This latest measure follows a series of restrictions imposed by the Taliban on women's visibility and participation in public life, including bans on education and work in NGOs. The directive has raised concerns about the increasing limitations on women's rights in Afghanistan.
