Humanity Denied - Systematic Violations of Women's Rights in Afghanistan
Human Rights Watch, New York, NY, USA
Supplied note:
'Women in Afghanistan have suffered a catastrophic assault on their human rights during more than twenty years of war and under the repressive rule of the Taliban. [...] The impunity that has characterized Afghanistan's civil war must not also come to characterize Afghanistan's post-conflict [post Dec 2001 - ed.] reconstruction and development."
