In just a few years since the Taliban retook control of the country, women's rights have been eroded to the point where even singing is banned.

Malala has a personal history with the Taliban across the border in Pakistan, after a gunman from the hardline Islamist group shot her as she sat on a school bus.

The speed of change in Afghanistan, if not the brutality, has surprised Malala, who since that near-fatal shooting in 2012 has campaigned for equality.

"I never imagined that the rights of women would be compromised so easily," Malala tells BBC Asian Network.
