Female Afghan MP shot in Kabul – The Express Tribune

"The interior ministry said Mariam Koofi, a member of parliament from the northeastern province of Takhar, was shot in Kabul by a member of the security forces following an argument.
It said police have detained a suspect and are investigating the motive behind the attack.
But her sister Fawzia Koofi, who is also a member of parliament and a prominent defender of women’s rights, said she was not certain who the attacker was.
“I am not sure who may have been behind this attack, and I hope the interior ministry takes serious actions to punish the attacker,” she said."
