KABUL - Security officials shot in the air and used fire hoses on Wednesday to disperse dozens of Afghan women protesting in Kabul against an order by the Taliban authorities to shut down beauty parlours, the latest curb to squeeze them out of public life.
Protesters later shared videos and photos with journalists that showed the authorities using a fire hose to disperse them as shots could be heard in the background. In late June, the Ministry for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice gave salons a month to close down, saying the grace period would allow them to use up stock.
A copy of the order seen by AFP said it was “based on verbal instruction from the supreme leader” Hibatullah Akhundzada.Beauty parlours mushroomed across Kabul and other Afghan cities in the 20 years that US-led forces occupied the country.
