Kabul: Justice Minister Fazel Ahmad Manawi has sent out a strong message to Taliban and said the group is guilty of war crimes for torturing and killing war hostages.
The Minister said the group is not committed to adhering to any international laws or humanitarian norms.

“What is done by the Taliban is a violation of human rights, a violation of international law and is an international crime and humanitarian crime,” Manawi said.
