She was from the Turkmen tribe and was originally a resident of Mazar-e-Sharif city, the capital of Balkh province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another source, who also spoke on condition of anonymity, said Gulalai was married and she was shot in front of her family members after being severely beaten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This source added that the murderers stole 15,000 afghanis (USD 215) and Gulalai\u2019s jewellery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The deaths come only a week after a young woman from Khaja Osman village in Faryab\u2019s Almar district was found killed by gunshot. Taliban officials have been unable to find any suspects in relation to that woman\u2019s murder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two women have been murdered in northern Faryab and Balkh provinces last week only a week after another young woman was mysteriously shot dead in Faryab.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":21785,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"subtitle":"","format":"standard","video":"","gallery":"","source_name":"","source_url":"","via_name":"","via_url":"","override":[{"single_blog_custom":"","sidebar":"","second_sidebar":"","share_position":"","share_float_style":"","post_date_format":"","post_date_format_custom":"","post_reading_time_wpm":"","zoom_button_out_step":"1","zoom_button_in_step":"1","number_popup_post":"1"}],"image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"","single_post_gallery_size":""}],"trending_post_position":"","trending_post_label":"","sponsored_post_label":"","sponsored_post_name":"","sponsored_post_url":"","sponsored_post_logo":"","sponsored_post_desc":""},"jnews_primary_category":{"id":""},"jnews_override_counter":{"view_counter_number":"0","share_counter_number":"0","like_counter_number":"0","dislike_counter_number":"0"},"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[900,896],"tags":[6852,6854],"class_list":["post-21782","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","category-uncategorized-en","tag-northern-afghanistan","tag-women-shot-dead"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
