Atiqullah Darwish, the Chief of the Criminal Division of the Supreme Court, said that since the Islamic Emirate returned to power, five retribution sentences of execution have been implemented across the country.
During a meeting in Panjshir province, he said that approximately 30 additional retribution sentences have been issued by the country’s courts and will be carried out upon approval by the leader of the Islamic Emirate.
The Chief of the Criminal Division of the Supreme Court said, “Five retribution sentences of execution have been carried out, and nearly 30 other cases are finalized and will be enforced after leadership approval.”
The governor of Panjshir also emphasized the need to update the Islamic Emirate’s criminal laws, saying that these changes aim to reduce crime and create deterrent punishments for offenders.
Mohammad Agha Hakim, governor of Panjshir, said: “Afghanistan’s Islamic Emirate should renew criminal laws in a way that punishments for criminals serve as a lesson for others, without leniency toward offenders. This approach will help us better control crime and criminals.”
Abdullah Sadid, head of the Panjshir Appeals Court, said: “About 12 criminal cases have been processed, with punishments carried out for seven of them. One case was resolved in court, two were sent for approval by the Supreme Court, and two retribution cases are pending, as both parties are seeking reconciliation.”
According to the Chief of the Criminal Court of the Supreme Court, Sharia law is applied uniformly across the country.
