In Afghanistan, Frashta Kohistani, an activist who fought for women’s rights, was killed on December 24. He had previously asked for his safety due to threats.
The woman died in the Kapisa province in the east of the country, reports ToloNews, citing the Interior Ministry.
In addition, according to the department, his brother was injured during the attack, but police say he was killed.
It is observed that around 4:00 p.m. an armed motorcyclist opened fire on them. The investigation is being carried out by an intelligence unit.
Local media clarify that the previous day the director general of the Forum for Free and Fair Elections in Afghanistan, Yusuf Rashid, was assassinated. He and the driver were shot and killed in Kabul.
A few days before his death, on December 13, Kohistani criticized Afghan law enforcement for not wanting to guarantee his safety after the threats. The woman finally addressed the First Deputy Prime Minister.
As OBOZREVATEL previously reported, a car with employees of the Russian diplomatic mission exploded with an improvised explosive device in Kabul.
