The Islamic Emirate&s spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid says any type of violence against women is prohibited in the country and those who abuse
women will be identified by investigative bodies and referred to judicial departments for punishment.Marking the International Day for the
Elimination of Violence Against Women, Mujahid said that forced marriages, ill-treatment, and family oppression of women are not acceptable,
and that currently there are some people in prison for the crime of violence against women and their cases are under investigation.&All
courts are mandated that wherever violence is discovered and seen, both the security forces and the forces of the judicial organ are
responsible for taking measures and whoever is subjected to violence, they should save her and refer the case to the courts as soon as
possible,& he said.The Supreme Court officials meanwhile said that since IEA&s takeover, more than 5,000 civil and legal cases, especially
the issue of women&s inheritance, have been dealt with.However, a number of women&s rights activists have said that women should have a
meaningful presence in various sectors.Earlier, a rare event happened this year when the security agencies in Kabul brought out a woman who
