“We, all women, should unite and enhance the resistance,” said the daughter of the 42-year-old Afghan woman who was murdered by her husband last week.

In the German city of Stuttgart, AKD, Frauenbündis Stuttgart and Die-Linke Stuttgart promoted a demonstration for 42-year-old Afghan woman who was murdered by her husband last week. The demonstration under the motto “Stop Femicide” was held at the scene where the woman was killed.

Speaking here, the daughter of the slain Afghan woman said the following: “It is honor that so many women have gathered here for my mother today. We, all women, should unite and enhance the resistance.”

A dead woman lying on the ground was drawn at the scene, around which candles and flowers were left.

During the protest march from Nordbahhof to Mittnachstrasse, women chanted “Jin, Jiyan, Azadi” (Woman, Life, Freedom), and “Women who fight are women who live. Let’s fight the system together”.

The demonstration ended with a press statement.
