‘Gunmen were looking for my mum’: daughter of Afghan ex-radio boss
Farkhunda’s sister and two brothers have disabilities and left their wheelchairs behind when fleeing a Taliban raid
Farkhunda’s* mother has run a feminist radio station in her conservative province for the best part of 20 years, in defiance of Taliban threats. She has three children with disabilities who were forced to abandon their wheelchairs when gunmen attacked their home about two months after the Taliban takeover. They are in hiding in a city safe house, but don’t know how they will survive longer term.
When the fighting closed in on our city in August we were moving around – one night in one place, one night in another place – staying with different relatives because my mum had received a lot of threats in the past.
