The women tell the Taliban that they came to this house for a party and did nothing else. But the Taliban people ignore their words and say that they were already looking for them and arrested them by resorting to force and apparently beating them.
So far, it is not clear which Taliban security agency arrested these women, and there is no information about their whereabouts.
The arrest of these women occurs while in recent days, on the occasion of two years since the Taliban took control of Afghanistan, protest gatherings against this group were launched inside and outside of Afghanistan, but the gatherings of protesting women inside Afghanistan were stopped due to the fear of arrest by the forces of this group, It was set up in closed and secret places.
