“They had relations a long time ago but were arrested early this
month. Their punishment is based on Sharia law and will teach others a
lesson.”

Hundreds of women in Afghan jails are victims of rape or domestic violence. This has been criticized as leading to “hundreds of incidents where a woman subjected to rape, or gang rape, was eventually accused of zinā and incarcerated, which is defended as punishment ordained by Allah.
