Tuesday’s gruesome publicly display is yet another example of the kind of practices that feed international concern that the Taliban have returned to their brutal ways last seen when they were in control of Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001. This is despite the Taliban frequently insisting to the world that it has changed from the hard-line Islamic group that doled out brutal punishments to criminals and greatly restricted the rights of the country’s citizens, particularly women and girls. And just a few weeks, similarly the dead bodies of “criminals accused of kidnapping” were hung from a crane in the middle of a busy square in Afghanistan after a bloody execution.

It comes as the Afghan girls football squad are begging for help to escape the Taliban — so they can play for Leeds United. Some 32 players, their families and coaches are in Pakistan on 30-day visas but face having to return to the sexist regime at the end of that time. It has written to Boris Johnson to ask for visas and say every squad member has been offered a place on Leeds’ youth development teams. And now the Home Secretary is “straining at every sinew” to bring the squad to Britain. Co-founder Kashif Siddiqi, a Pakistani international, said: “The race is on to find them a permanent safe haven.” is urgently working on whether UK visas can be found for the girls, their coaches and their families after their plight was raised by charity Football For Peace. They are currently on 30 days temporary permits in Pakistan after escaping over the land border from Kabul as the Taliban seized control of Afghanistan in August. But they may be sent back to face their fate under the women-hating regime if a third country cannot be found for them. And the Taliban told Boris Johnson to “respect the aspiration” of Afghanistan and that it’s his “moral obligation” to help rebuild the country. This is a “new chapter” of “peace and co-existence” in Afghanistan – and world leaders need to get on board with the new way of life, the group said today. Suhail Shaheen, the Taliban’s spokesman told Sky News tonight: “The UK Prime Minister and all leaders of the world, they should respect the aspirations of the people of Afghanistan.
