The spokesperson for the General Directorate of Prisons has announced that, with the approval of the Supreme Court, 1,191 prisoners and detainees have been released from the country’s prisons. According to the spokesperson, these individuals were freed as part of a pardon process on the occasion of Eid al-Adha.<\/p>\n
According to the provided information, the aim of this action was to enable the released individuals to spend the holiday days with their families. No further details have been disclosed regarding the types of charges, length of sentences, or the criteria used to select those eligible for the pardon.<\/p>\n
In recent years, the Taliban administration has released some prisoners during religious occasions through pardon decrees. However, the lack of transparency in the case review process and the criteria for pardons has consistently been questioned by human rights organizations and the families of prisoners.<\/p>\n
Legal experts emphasize that any pardon process should be based on clear legal principles, transparency in decision-making, and respect for the rights of victims in order to strengthen public trust in the judicial system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
