According to a Taliban’s spokesperson, Mullah Hebatullah Akhundzada, the Taliban’s supreme leader has recently met with the judges and have told them to seriously investigate and implement Sharia law on the criminals.
The records of those criminals engaged in theft, abductions and seditionists should be carefully assessed and serious sentences including death penalties must be considered for the finalized cases, Zabihullah Mujahid, a Taliban’s spokesperson quoting Mullah Hebatullah, tweeted on Sunday.
According to Mujahid, Mullah Hebatullah has ordered judges to take serious actions against the criminals as implementation of his orders and Sharia law is obligatory.
This comes as soon after the return of the Taliban in power, the civil laws and criminal codes were announced to be invalidated, and decisions must be made according to the Islamic Sharia law.
