Fight for women’s rights in Afghanistan is a universal one, former minister says

Afghan women are now forbidden from praying loudly or reciting the Koran in front of other women, according to a Taliban government minister. It's the latest restriction on women following laws that ban them from raising their voices and showing their faces outside the home. FRANCE 24's Sharon Gaffney speaks to former Afghan minister Nargis Nehan. She says that women's rights in Afghanistan are a universal issue, not an internal problem of the country.
