The Taliban's Higher Education Ministry revoked the operating license of Khatam al-Nabieen University, closing its main campus in Kabul and a second campus in Ghazni province. Nearly 4,000 students enrolled in undergraduate and master's programs now face uncertainty about continuing their studies. The university's owner rejected the Taliban's stated justifications — failure to implement ministry policies, disrespect for Islamic values, misuse of standing, and conduct contrary to principles — as unsupported by evidence or documentation. A former prosecutor noted the legal grounds for the revocation were legally inadequate.
