The Dhaka Times Desk Last month, the Taliban's supreme leader, Hibatullah Akhundzada, ordered full Sharia law in Afghanistan's justice system. Then the country is being tried according to Sharia law, according to a report by news agency AFP.
Billions of dollars were spent on building a new justice system in Afghanistan after the Taliban were ousted from power in 2001. which was a combination of Islamic and secular law. That would have competent counsel and plaintiff's lawyers and judges.
At that time, many women were also appointed to the judiciary. Those women have handled many cases of extremist Taliban militants. There is much more gender equality in family court.
However, after taking power last year, the Taliban canceled this entire system. Now male Maulana are carrying out the responsibility of execution of judgment and punishment.
Recently, representatives of the news agency AFP had the opportunity to enter a Sharia court in Afghanistan's Ghazni province. A 75-year-old man was on trial for murder when AFP correspondents visited the court in Ghazni. He was sentenced to death in November. Now he has appealed against this verdict.
The picture inside the court is like this - a young judge named Mohammad Mubin wearing a turbine (turban) on his head is sitting on the ground in a small room (court). The sentenced old man was brought before the judge. The old man knelt before him. Sometimes there is some conversation between them.
Ghazni court chief Umari claimed that Sharia law is much better than the judicial process of the previous government. Although he admits officers need more experience.
According to Transparency International's ranking, Afghanistan ranks 177th out of 180 most corrupt countries in the world. It is also alleged that the country's courts are notorious for bribery and that cases remain pending for years.
Umari claimed, 'Basically the Islamic Emirate is showing transparency.' Afghanistan is called the Islamic Emirate.
But many Afghans say they are in favor of taking criminal cases to Sharia courts. They claim that this process is less corrupt.
On the other hand, jurists have argued that there is a greater risk of mistrials in criminal cases under the new system.
An unemployed prosecutor, who did not want to be named due to security concerns, said some cases would be better if they were decided quickly. However, most cases lead to default judgments.
