Taliban pamphlets threatening execution of Afghan women working with foreign NGOs in Afghanistan have been circulated in eastern Laghman province, a report said on Sunday.The unsigned and undated bill calls upon Afghans to intensify jihad against the US and allied forces under the leadership of the Talibanâs in-hiding spiritual leader Mullah Mohammad Omar, the Afghan Islamic Press (AIP) reported. "Those women who are working with foreign NGOs will be killed," the pamphlet said, according to the Pakistan-based private news service. It also warned the Laghman administration of serious consequences if it did not stop a campaign against religious leaders and the Taliban and if it continued supporting the US-led administration. The leaflets also warned drivers plying Laghman-Kabul-Nangarhar highways not to carry foreigners or else face death. Posted by: TS 2003-10-26 |
