Kandahar (PAN): Latifa who was badly beaten by her husband and father-in-law in Chora district of Uruzgan province has been moved to Mirwais Hospital in Kandahar

She said her husband beat her badly, breaking several of her teeth and slitting her mouth with a knife.

“My husband and father-in-law beat me. My teeth are broken and my mouth is cut by a knife by my husband,” Latifa said.

Latifa’s parents took her to Kandahar for medical treatment after they discovered her wounds. They are now asking the government and rights organizations for help in seeking justice.
