No foreign body has right to interfere in our judicial system: Supreme Court Spokesman

The spokesperson for the Supreme Court, Abdul Rahim Rashid, on Saturday issued a statement in response to remarks by the United Nations Human Rights Office, stating that no foreign authority has the right to interfere in the Sharia, religion, or judicial system of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA).

The UN Human Rights Office had earlier described the implementation of Qisas (retribution) against four individuals in the provinces of Badghis, Nimroz, and Farah as being contrary to human dignity.

According to the statement from the Supreme Court, the public execution of four individuals was carried out based on the clear rulings of Sharia, credible evidence, the confessions of the murderers, and to reform society, uphold justice, and prevent crimes.
