The Taliban will bring back severe punishments to Afghanistan, which will include hand amputations and executions, according to one of the group’s leaders.

Mullah Nooruddin Turabi, a founder of the Taliban, said Thursday that both forms of punishment would resume in the country, though he is unsure whether the punishments will occur in public. Turabi also dismissed criticism of how the Taliban handled executions in the past, which sometimes took place in front of crowds at a stadium, according to Associated Press.
