On Monday, a U.N. report strongly denounced the Taliban for engaging in public executions, lashings, and stonings since assuming control in Afghanistan.

The report, issued by the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA), revealed that within the past six months alone, 274 men, 58 women, and two boys have been subjected to public floggings.

Fiona Frazer, the human rights chief of the agency, emphasized that such acts of corporal punishment constitute a violation of the Convention against Torture and must be immediately discontinued, the Associated Press has reported.
