The parents of two young policewomen who were shot dead by Taliban in Badakhshan province seven months ago said government promised them apartments but nothing has been forthcoming so far.

Noor Haya and Manoora, who were sisters, were active policewomen in Faizabad City and were the only breadwinners of their 13-member family.

They were in a car with their mother when they were stopped by four armed men and abducted.

The body of one was found eight days later next to a river however the body of the second woman is still missing. She is however thought to have been shot.

The mother of the two policewomen said her daughters joined the Afghan police force one year before they were killed.
