Mujahid: “People Involved Ghor Conflict Will Go to Military Trial”

Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesman of the caretaker government, told media that the people involved in Ghor incident will be tried by military. He said that this conflict took place between two families and people from the security forces also intervened without informing the justice and judicial bodies.
Mr. Mujahid, without naming the accused, emphasized that these soldiers were handed over to the Military Court of Ghor Province and the incident is under prosecution and follow-up.
In recent days, a video has been circulating on social networks in which armed people take a girl by force and a man beats a woman with a stick amid the women’s screams.
It is said that this incident happened in one of the villages of Pasaband district of Ghor province.
Local sources have told the media that a 17-year-old girl was forced to marry Shah Wali from the locals of the caretaker government. Sources add that the dispute was over the bride’s dowry. This girl was forced to marry before, but due to non-payment of dowry by the groom, she was returned to her father’s house.
Mishandling and interference outside the jurisdiction of government officials in some issues is something that is sometimes criticized by citizens.
