: Fourteen people were lashed in a football stadium in eastern Afghanistan, the Taliban-led Supreme Court said on Wednesday, in the latest sign of the ruling group applying its strict interpretation of sharia to criminal justice.

“Fourteen people, including three women were lashed in the presence of scholars, authorities, and people for different sins including adultery, robbery, and other forms of corruption in a football stadium in the Logar province,” the Supreme Court said on Twitter, adding two other people had also been lashed in eastern Laghman province.

Other countries have been scrutinising the Taliban’s track record on human rights and women’s rights since they took over in August 2021 after a two-decade insurgency.
