Mohammad Qasim Riaz, a Taliban-appointed spokesman for the Helmand province governor’s office, said those involved in various crimes were punished at the sports stadium in Lashkar Gah. Each person was given 35 to 39 lashes as punishment. During this Islamic clerics, provincial officials of Taliban, elders and local people were present. Riyaz told that apart from this many people were sent to jail according to their crime.
