Taliban fighters are going door-to-door and forcibly marrying girls as young as 12 and forcing them into sex slavery as they seize vast swathes of the Afghanistan from government forces.  Jihadist commanders have ordered imams in areas they have captured to bring them lists of unmarried women aged from 12 to 45  for their soldiers to marry because they view them as 'qhanimat' or 'spoils of war' - to be divided up among the victors. Fighters have then been going door-to-door to claim their 'prizes', even looking through the wardrobes of families to establish the ages of girls before forcing them into a life of sexual servitude.  The women and girls' brutal treatment is just the latest sign of Afghanistan's military collapse, which has prompted the Afghan president to sack his top commander. One female journalist described fleeing a city in northern Afghanistan - which she did not name - and going into hiding with her uncle for fear the Islamists would hun

Suicide Squad star Joel Kinnaman is under investigation in Sweden for the alleged rape of a model, it has been revealed.   Swedish prosecutors announced Wednesday they had opened a criminal investigation after police received a complaint accusing an actor of rape. Bella Davis, 28, claims Kinnaman, 41, raped her twice in a hotel room in New York back in 2018.  Davis told DailyMail.com she is 'thankful' that Swedish authorities are taking her complaint seriously.    Kinnaman denies the allegations, claiming the pair had a consensual fling and that he is the victim of an attempt by Davis to extort him for money and Hollywood connections. A representative for the actor told DailyMail.com the star has also filed a police complaint against Davis in Sweden and that he 'will be cooperating with police to clear his name.' The launch of the police investigation comes just days after Kinnaman was granted a restraining order against Davis in a Los Angeles court.    Suicide Squad st

Dozens of Afghans who taught English and promoted UK values to thousands across the country fear being ‘abandoned’ to the Taliban. More than 100 former employees of the British Council have seen their requests for sanctuary rejected. And many more fear they too will be ‘left behind’ to face the revenge of the Taliban after being branded ‘spies’ and the ‘voice of the English’. One rejected teacher told how his home has twice been attacked by gunmen in the last month. Another – who had worked for the British in rural Afghanistan for 13 years – described how a leader at his local mosque had pointed at him warning that anyone ‘supporting British Council and teaching its language is an infidel’.

Fewer than one in five workers have returned to their offices since 'Freedom Day' last month, according to research. However, the same data suggests Britons are keener to venture back into town centres to socialise – though overall footfall still remains half that of pre-pandemic levels. The research is more evidence of the reluctance of many to get back to the office after well over a year of working from home. Restrictions were eased on July 19 but the Centre for Cities think-tank found only 18 per cent of staff in the 31 largest cities had returned to their city centre workplace a week later. In London, only 15 per cent of workers were back in the week starting July 26. Yet Brighton saw a six percentage point increase – with almost half of workers (49 per cent) back in the office at the end of last month, compared with the pre-pandemic figure. The findings, based on anonymised mobile phone data, suggest Britons are keener to return to city centres at night – with average foo

Karl Stefanovic has hit out at the NRL for refusing to force its players to get a Covid vaccine despite soon requiring spectators to be double-jabbed against the virus. NRL CEO Andrew Abdo said this week the league was 'in no position' to be making the jab mandatory for the game's biggest stars. But league officials have backed plans to ban fans from games if they are not vaccinated by the start of next year. Stefanovic said the NRL should force players to immunise themselves against the virus unless they can prove they have a genuine reason not to get the jab.  Pictured: NRL players and their families arriving at a Queensland bubble hotel in Coolangatta. Karl Stefanovic has lashed out at the NRL for refusing to force its players to get a Covid vaccine 'Every player who can get should,' the Today show host said. 'There will be some who object to it but we need to send the message out there.' He said making the jab mandatory would send a message to the res
