Kabul: Afghanistan's Taliban government spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid on Thursday said Taliban leader Mullah Haibatullah Akhundzada has directed for the implementation of  Sharia law in the country.

Akhundzada called for the implementation of Sharia law, saying any law enacted by the people are not acceptable and that every problem should be solved by Sharia, reports Khaama Press.

According to the statement, all rights concerning women and minorities in the country must be upon Sharia, stressing the implementation of a latest decree by the supreme leader that has at least six articles.

The Taliban came to power in Afghanistan last year.

They took control over Kabul on Aug 15.

The Taliban regiment has been implementing stricter restriction ever since it came to power.
