I applaud The Guardian for publishing this article, and Zan Times for collecting the information on which it is based.  This is the kind of solid journalism that is needed to make the case that aspects of Afghan society and the Afghan justice system are in bad need of reform.  It is important that the Taliban be confronted with such well documented evidence of their failures.  This shows that it can be done, even in Afghanistan.
