Afghan mob victim Farkhunda's mother speaks of her pain

The mother of Farkhunda Malikzada, the Afghan woman who was killed by a mob after she was wrongly accused of burning the Koran, says images of her daughter's murder on social media 'pain her heart'.

Speaking to international media for the first time, Bibi Hajera told the BBC she still cannot understand why police standing in the background of the pictures did not intervene to save Farkhunda.

"The police are just standing there," she said "why don't they bring a car over, or a policewoman?"

Farkhunda was attacked by a crowd at an Islamic shrine in the Afghan capital, Kabul in March.

She was stoned to death, her body was run over by a car and set on fire.

Eight men were later jailed for the attack, and four others received death sentences.

Eleven policemen were sentenced to one year in prison for failing to protect Ms Malikzada, a devout Islamic student.

Eight other police officers were acquitted.

An appeal court subsequently quashed the death sentences, commuting them to prison terms.

The 11 police officers were released pending a final appeal.
