Dozens of civil society activists have
taken to the streets of capital Kabul and the city of western Herat
province calling “Justice for Farkhunda”.They are carrying the photos of
Farkhunda, taken during the brutally beating and killing, and ask
government to severely punish those responsible for the cruel killing. In the meantime, Amnesty International
has called on the National Unity Government of Afghanistan to drag to
judiciary those involved in the killing as well as the security
officials who were present at the site of the crime but did not act
against it.
