The interim government of Afghanistan has denied the allegations leveled in a United Nations report about human rights situation, particularly violations of women’s rights in the country.
In a statement, Spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said the report of the United Nations Representative, Richard Bennett on human rights situation in Afghanistan is biased and far from reality.
He said we condemn and call it regrettable that irresponsible and controversial statements are being published against Afghanistan.
Meanwhile, the Chief of Staff at the Afghan Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, Sharafuddin Sharaf, in a statement said that many women are being paid in the country despite not attending work.
