Terrible news from Mazar-e-Sharif: dead bodies of four women’s rights activists were found in the city.

Frozan Safi (in the picture) is one of them. Frozan’s relatives say she along with three others have been disappeared days before.

Hey @Disney - have you seen this thread of disgusting, sexualised imagery based on your children's characters. You have the intellectual property rights, surely you can do something? #safeguarding #predators
