Afghan's Latifa Azizi performs on the "Afghan star" talent show in Kabul. Azizi and her family fled Mazar for the Afghan capital, Kabul, soon after she appeared on the show in November. Her community was angry with her appearance, saying it was un-Islamic for a woman to sing and appear on television. The family began to receive death threats. Reuters/Omar Sobhani
