AFGHANISTAN Taliban's official mouthpiece, Radio Voice of Shariat has
been launched again in southern Afghanistan.
Locals and authorities have that the broadcasting in the southern
provinces has begun. Radio Voice of Shariat signal is available in the
provinces of Paktia, Paktika and Khost. Taliban controlled the Afghanistan
Radio and TV when they captured Kabul In June 1996. They took the TV off
the air and blasted the uplink dishes. their main objection was the
appearance of female artists on the TV which they declared anti-Islamic.
Broadcasting was restricted to Radio on MW and FM . Playing music and
broadcasting female sounds was stopped. The name of the Radio Afghanistan
was also changed to Radio Voice of Shariat. Radio Voice of Shariat went
off the air and Radio Afghanistan regained its existence after September
11 when the Northern Alliance forces, backed by the US and the allies
captured Kabul in 2001. And Radio Afghanistan started its broadcasting.
According to locals in the southern provinces bordering Pakistan, the
renewed Taliban programmes are heard every night from an unknown place on
FM band, which can be heard for over a week. Most of their programmes are
propaganda against the Karzai Government and international forces based in
Afghanistan. Their propaganda calls the country 'occupied' and they
encourage the people to fight against the Government and international
forces. Parts of the programme are messages of Mullah Mohammad Omar, the
Taliban leader that provokes people for Jihad.
Radio Voice of Shariat do broadcast songs, but without music, the same
music which was heard during the times when Afghanistan was under their
control. The songs do have music; are more provocative and remind the
people of Taliban as a good period of their rule.
