![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() No human rights organizations operated in any part of Afghanistan, although some nongovernmental organizations based in Pakistan did conduct investigations and carried out some monitoring and documentation of conditions inside the country. They did so at considerable risk, and some received threats from members of the Taliban and from the Islamic Party (Hebz-i Islami). A number of women working for Afghan nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in Peshawar, Pakistan who have been critical of the Talibans policies also received threats. Najeeba Sara Bibi, a reporter with the British Broadcasting Corporations Pashto Service in Peshawar, received threats after she spoke about womens rights at a gathering in connection with Afghan Independence Day. On October 5, two unidentified gunmen shot at her, but she was unharmed. |
