BAMYAN, August 28 (Afghan Women News Agency) – After banning women from going to amusement parks in Bamyan, Taliban religious police have warned shopkeepers to refrain from selling foreign clothes.
Local sources in Bamyan Province told the Afghan Women’s News Agency that dozens of Taliban religious police inspected the shops in the city of this province yesterday, and ordered the shopkeepers to empty their shops of non-Afghan clothes by next week.
At the same time, the shopkeepers in Bamyan criticize this order of the Taliban and say that they have a lot of capital invested in non-Afghan goods and clothes, and if the Taliban puts pressure on them, they will lose their capital.
Meanwhile, the Minister for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice of the Taliban issued the order to collect non-Afghan clothes during a trip to Bamyan two days ago and asked the religious police of this group to collect non-Afghan clothes from the markets of this province.
