Mohammad Abbas Stanikzai, Taliban’s deputy foreign minister, left for UAE after criticising ban on secondary school and higher education for girls

Summary

Mohammad Abbas Stanikzai, the Taliban’s deputy foreign minister, reportedly fled to the UAE after criticizing the Taliban’s ban on girls’ education.

In a January 20 speech, he condemned the restrictions as unjust and contrary to Islamic teachings.

Following his remarks, Taliban leader Hibatullah Akhundzada allegedly ordered his arrest and imposed a travel ban. Stanikzai claims he left for health reasons.

This comes amid increasing international pressure, with the ICC seeking arrest warrants against Taliban leaders for crimes against humanity over their treatment of women.

        It was really just the first one he saw that they won. There were more timelines, Strange just got tired and picked this one.
