Then again, 12-year-old girls really shouldn’t be wearing sexy clothes to begin with.

(ANI)The new law proposed by the Afghanistan Government that bans women garments contrary to Islamic sharia has outraged the general public and human right activists.

The Government has planned to close down the shops dealing with outfits that are semi-naked, naked, transparent, or tight in a way that reveals part of the woman’s body.

The new law also bans large parties in the wedding halls. It says that wedding guests will be limited to 300 and selections of food will be regulated by local government officials to ensure no more than 5 dollar is spent per person.

The government is also planning to set up ‘committees’ to monitor weddings.

The groups including representatives of the Religious Affairs Ministry, will be expected to patrol private wedding ceremonies taking place in wedding halls of Kabul, The Guardian reports.

Their duty also includes ensuring male and female guests do not mix in same rooms, which is already a standard practice in most Afghan weddings.

“This is pointless because the mullahs will not be happy unless the women are wearing burqas,” “It is all because of pressure from the Taliban,” said a shopkeeper Muhiuddin Alizada, as he was shocked due to the new restrictions.
