The Taliban's Supreme Court announced that two individuals were publicly flogged in Ghazni province on charges of theft.

The court stated that the individuals received 35 and 39 lashes, with one of them sentenced to two years in prison and the other to three years.

On Wednesday, the Taliban's Supreme Court said in a statement that the group’s court in the Deh Yak district of Ghazni had punished these individuals in public.

The group did not disclose the identities of these individuals.

Over the past week, the Taliban have flogged nearly 20 people in Kabul, Zabul, Helmand, and Khost provinces on various charges.

Since their return to power, the Taliban government has resumed corporal punishments. Despite widespread international criticism, the group has continued to enforce these penalties.
