The 23-year old graduate is from the northeastern province of Badakhshan and only gave her last name, Efat , to avoid reprisals.

The Taliban last week issued the country’s first set of laws to prevent vice and promote virtue.

They include a requirement for a woman to conceal her face, body and voice outside the home.

The laws have triggered widespread condemnation and accusations that the Taliban are erasing women from public life.
