SaltWire's Atlantic regional weather forecast for October 26, 2023 | SaltWire - Taliban authorities released prominent education activist Matiullah Wesa this week, his organisation said on Thursday, after his seven-month detention sparked condemnation from the United Nations and rights groups.
Wesa, from the southern province of Kandahar, has for years advocated for girls' education, particularly in conservative rural areas, including during the tenure of the previous Western-backed foreign government when he said many girls living in the countryside were not reached by education services.
"Matiullah Wesa is released ... he is with his family," said Nasibullah Noor, a board member at Pen Path, Wesa's education organisation.
