KABUL (BNA): The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has firmly dismissed recent announcements from the International Criminal Court (ICC) regarding the arrest and prosecution of its senior officials.
Mawlavi Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesman for the Islamic Emirate, declared that such actions are inconsequential to their resolve and stance.
Mujahid reiterated the Islamic Emirate’s non-recognition of the ICC, stating, “We do not recognize any organization called the International Criminal Court, nor do we have any commitment to it.” He criticized the ICC for its perceived inaction regarding ongoing violence, particularly the situation in Gaza, where he claimed that the genocide of women and children is occurring daily.
He emphasized that the leadership of the Islamic Emirate has established a unique form of justice in Afghanistan, grounded in Islamic Sharia law. Mujahid condemned the ICC’s actions as a sign of hostility towards Islam and Sharia, asserting that accusations against the principles of Islamic law are disrespectful to the beliefs of Muslims worldwide.
