The administrative employees of the Supreme Court of the former government held a protest in front of the Supreme Court in Macroyan 3 in Kabul, complaining they have not been paid for the past 10 months.

Many of the protestors were women who expressed concerns over their deteriorated economic conditions.

“Since the Islamic Emirate came to power, we are facing uncertainty. When we bring our issues to the court, we face bad treatment by the officials,” a female protestor said.

“The officials don’t respond to us about why we were dismissed and are not being paid,” a female protestor said.

The protestors also expressed concerns over their deteriorated economic condition.

“We are jobless and at home. We don’t have any jobs. There is no work. They (Islamic Emirate) also don’t allow us to carry on with our work at the court,” said Azizullah, a protestor.

The Islamic Emirate said that they will soon address the problems of these employees.

“The Islamic Emirate will address in general the problems of the departments whose activities have been halted, causing their employees to become jobless,” said Bilal Karimi, deputy spokesman for the Islamic Emirate.

According to protestors, there are 150 administrative employees not allowed to attend work after the Islamic Emirate swept into power.
