To the cries of a crowd of 30,000 in Kabul’s Olympic Stadium in Afghanistan, a panicked woman is led across the football pitch, flanked by armed guards.
As they approach the goalposts, it is another woman similarly dressed in a blue burqa who forces the 35-year-old on to her knees on the edge of the penalty area, surrounded by Taliban soldiers.
A man thought to be her brother-in-law quickly raises a Kalashnikov to her head and the sound of the 7.62mm bullet ricochets through the stadium. The woman slumps to the ground.
