An Afghan volleyball player on the girls’ national team was beheaded by the Taliban — with gruesome photos of her severed head posted on social media, according to her coach.

Mahjabin Hakimi, one of the best players in the Kabul Municipality Volleyball Club, was slaughtered in the capital city of Kabul as troops searched for female sports players, her coach told the Persian Independent.

She was killed earlier this month, but her death remained mostly hidden because her family had been threatened not to talk, claimed the coach, using a pseudonym, Suraya Afzali, due to safety fears.

Not from me, apparently from twitter: "We interrupt our coverage of the State Department’s quest to defend pronoun choice to inform people that the Taliban are murdering women … again … and gruesomely. The murder of a player on the Afghanistan national girl’s volleyball team got confirmed this week by the Taliban itself. They posted pictures of Mahjabin Hakimi’s decapitated body, clearly intended as a warning to other women who participated in public life during the brief period of relative freedom women enjoyed:"

From me: With Friends like American Leftists, Women don't need Enemies.

Thank you President Biden.

What good did it do to use a pseudonym if they are going to state your relationship as coach to the girl.

Not on the evening news. Of course the media don’t want us to know that the people whose butt biden kissed are violent, brutal savages.

Can’t be true.

Biden says we’ll make sure they respect human rights. (sarc)

Whoopie: “It wasn’t murder murder”

She also defended vick fighting, torturing and killing dogs as part of their “culture’.

You are correct, no major news outlets carried this story.

Only the UK Sun, which is not that big.

No TV reports, no AP, no Reuters.

Let’s go Brandon! Drop dead Brandon!

[Gene Eric]

Why? Was she known to kneel in protest? Did she look like James Woods?

[Lurker]

Were they “professional” about it?

[Strident]

Makes me think of those UC-Berkeley campus numbnutz who were filmed by Ami Horowitz signing a mock and mock-worthy “Fund the Taliban” petition.

Any chance of them experiencing cognitive dissonance now?

Nah, that pre-supposes cognition.

The story went wild in the India Press, no where else because it is largely false:
