Taliban ban Helmand barbers from trimming beards

Anyone violating the rule will be punished, Taliban religious police say. Some barbers in the capital Kabul have said they also received similar orders. The instructions suggest a return to the strict rulings of the group's past tenure in power, despite promises of a milder form of government.

In a notice posted on salons in southern Helmand province, Taliban officers warned that hairdressers must follow Sharia law for haircuts and beards."No one has a right to complain," the notice, which was seen by the BBC, read. Another hairdresser, who runs one of the city's biggest salons, said he received a call from someone claiming to be a government official. They instructed him to"stop following American styles" and not to shave or trim anyone's beard.

But the barbers, who have not been named to protect their safety, say the new rules are making it hard for them to make a living."For many years my salon was somewhere for young people to shave as their wish and look trendy," one told the BBC."There is no point to continue this business."
