In the first press conference since taking over Afghanistan, the Taliban promised to build a secure country where the rights of women will be honoured. Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid, who has been a shadowy figure for years issuing statements on behalf of the militants, said that they have forgiven “everyone”. Admitting that the earlier rule restricted women, he asserted that their rights will be honoured under Islamic law.
