In a statement, the Purple Saturdays Movement called for the approval of the request for the issuance of an arrest warrant for the Taliban leader and the chief justice of the group’s Supreme Court.
This movement of protesting women has also called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to pave the way for the trial of the leaders of the Taliban group.
The Purple Saturdays Movement in a statement said, "Due to the ban on the travel of the Taliban leader and the head of the Supreme Court abroad, we are very concerned that the request for the issuance of an arrest warrant for Taliban officials will not be implemented and will only be symbolic."
These protesting women have stressed that the leaders of the Taliban group should be prosecuted without distinction into "good" and "bad".
They also called for the arrest warrants for Interior Minister Sirajuddin Haqqani; Higher Education Minister Neda Mohammad Nadeem; Virtue Promotion Minister Mohammad Khalid Hanafi, and Justice Minister Abdul Hakim Shari.
The Purple Saturdays Movement said that these individuals "are contaminated with the blood of thousands of innocent people, including women and children, by planning and executing hundreds of suicide and explosive attacks, in addition to committing widespread crimes against humanity".
The prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Karim Khan, previously announced that he had sent a request for the arrest of Hibatullah Akhundzada, the leader of the Taliban, and Abdul Hakim Haqqani, the Taliban's chief justice, to the International Criminal Court.
