Dozens of young women detained in Kabul because of their appearance
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] Dozens of young women have been detained in the Afghan capital Kabul, presumably for their inappropriate appearance. This was reported by the Afghanistan International portal.

"Taliban [the Taliban are under UN sanctions for terrorist activities] morality police have detained dozens of young women in the Qala-e Fatullah and Kote Sangi areas of Kabul as part of an ongoing crackdown for allegedly violating a dress code," the authors said.

According to the publication's sources, the arrests were made on July 18 and 19 in restaurants, shopping centers and on the streets. There were no female police officers present during the operations, and physical force was used against the women during the arrests. The detainees were then taken away to an unknown location.

In just one week, about 100 women were detained. They were caught in markets and hospitals without being formally charged. Former Afghan officials and political leaders have condemned the arrests, calling them illegal and a violation of basic rights, the article noted.
