Asked what the crime was, Khan said a woman had run away from her husband and taken refuge in the house of a female friend. They had arrested the friend, he said, but the wife fled.

Sounds to me like the Afghan police need a LOT more training. They should have investigated the husband to see why the woman had to run from him, not arrest her friend who gave her refuge.

If they're still trying to run things on islamic law, the country is doomed.
