According to local sources in Samangan province, a young girl named Sohaila was found hanged inside her home by her own parents.
Taliban officials in the first security district of Eibak, the center of Samangan, claim that this incident occurred on Wednesday night, June 7.
The Taliban allege that Sohaila’s parents have been detained by their forces and have confessed to the crime.
Sources have identified domestic violence as the motive behind this tragic event.
Since the resurgence of the Taliban in Afghanistan, incidents of domestic violence have increased among families due to poverty and dire circumstances.
In a separate incident yesterday, the body of an 8-year-old boy was discovered in the Charekar River, the center of Parwan province, a week after his abduction.
