Mahbubeh Siraj, a women’s rights activist, was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

The Oslo Peace Research Institute published the final list of nominees for the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday, September 29.

In the list published by this institution, Mahbubeh Siraj and Narges Mohammadi, women’s rights activists from Afghanistan and Iran, have been jointly selected as candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize.

At the beginning of the year, the inclusion of the popular name of Siraj in the list of Nobel peace candidates was met with many protests.

Civil activists and women’s rights have considered Mehbooba Siraj’s nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize unacceptable and accused her of supporting the Taliban.

On the other hand, the plaintiffs of the Hazara community also accused him of spreading hatred and supporting the crime and genocide of Abdul Rahman.
