During wars, walls have ears. However, in the post-Soviet years in Afghanistan, when Pakistan and the indigenous Taliban were wresting control of the country from a more civil regime, the world outside had little idea of what the concoction of feudalism and fundamentalism meant to ordinary lives.

These shifts in human attitudes aren't captured by military surveillance. Sushmita Bandopadhyay, a Kolkata girl, fell in love and got married to an Afghan moneylender, Jaanbaz Khan. She stayed with his family between 1989 and 1995 in his ancestral home some 120 km from Kabul and has now come out with her memoir in a trilogy.

The first volume, Kabuliwalar Bangali Bou (Kabuliwala's Bengali Wife), published in 1998, has sold seven lakh copies, including over one lakh copies of a somewhat amateurish English version. Her publishers claim that the second volume, Taliban, Afghan and I, in Bangla, out last year, is approaching half-a-million in sales. The final volume, Ek Borno Mithya Noi (Not a Word is a Lie), published earlier this year, was a rage much before the September 11 attacks.

Much of the trilogy has moments which are the stuff of cinema. Like Bandopadhyay's two abortive escape attempts which took her to and from the winding Khyber Pass, to be stopped by her husband's relatives almost at the gate of the Indian Embassy in Islamabad.

These were journeys without a map or a passport. Or like the encounter with a Taliban squad that could have been fatal. "The Taliban court gave its verdict. I was to be shot dead on the morning of July 22, 1995, on the charge of disorderly behaviour unbecoming of a woman... At 10.27 a.m., I was brought to the mehman-khana (guest room) where 15 Taliban soldiers, who were to be my executioners, were reading from the Koran."

As the "suras" (verses) unfolded them selves in melodic incantation, one of the men looked up and asked: "Do you want us to convey your last message to your husband?" She claims that she managed to escape the jaws of death by snatching the loaded Kalashnikov from the wall, thus turning the tables on the soldiers who usually keep their firearms out in the courtyard.


Filmmakers are now queueing up at Bandopadhyay's flat in the city's eastern suburbs. Kolkata film producer Vijay Nopani and his ESC Films stole a march over others by buying the rights of a film tentatively titled Escape from Taliban from the author. The film, which has Manisha Koirala in the lead role, is being shot in Ladakh, a terrain that bears close resemblance to Khan's native village.


While the producers are tight-lipped about their plans, pressure is mounting on Bandopadhyay, both from outside and within her home to take back the film rights of her story. Pakhtoon groups in India feel the film might trigger racial conflicts. Khan, who has not been to Afghanistan since 1990, is staunchly opposed to the idea of his wife's stories being filmed. "My entire family back home in Afghanistan could be killed."

Bandopadhyay thinks differently though. "The Afghans, despite their backwardness, are a friendly lot but the Taliban are as barbaric as the Huns from the past. I will not let my stories be filmed if this line gets blurred by the omission or commission of the filmmakers." Last week, the production company flew her to Ladakh so that she could watch the shooting, examine the script and decide on the film's fate.

Bandopadhyay and Khan live in a city far from Ground Zero of the western powers' war on Islamic terrorism. She has embarked on her new project, a weekly Bangla magazine focusing on women's rights. Khan, who shies away from his wife's media friends and spends time pursuing clients, had never suspected that his wife's memoirs in Bangla would make a noise loud enough to find echoes back home. But nor does Bandopadhyay think it is the wife's obligation to pass up an opportunity to reach a large audience with first-hand tales about Taliban barbarism.

Indian diarist Sushmita Banerjee shot dead in Afghanistan


An Indian woman, who wrote a popular memoir about her escape from the Taliban, has been shot dead in Afghanistan by suspected militants, police say.

Sushmita Banerjee, who was married to an Afghan businessman, was killed outside her home in Paktika province.

The book about her dramatic escape in 1995 became a best-seller in India and was made into a Bollywood film in 2003.

Ms Banerjee had recently moved back to Afghanistan to live with her husband.

A senior police official told the BBC's Jafar Haand that Ms Banerjee, who was also known as Sayed Kamala, was working as a health worker in the province and had been filming the lives of local women as part of her work.

Police said Taliban militants arrived at her home in the provincial capital, Kharana, tied up her husband and other members of the family, took Ms Banerjee out and shot her. They dumped her body near a religious school, police added.

The Taliban have told the BBC they did not carry out the attack on Ms Banerjee.




'Taliban interrogation'

Ms Banerjee, 49, became well-known in India for her memoir, A Kabuliwala's Bengali Wife, which recounted her life in Afghanistan with her husband Jaanbaz Khan and her escape.

She was the subject of the 2003 Bollywood film, Escape From Taliban.

Starring actress Manisha Koirala, the film described itself as a "story of a woman who dares [the] Taliban".

Ms Banerjee also told her story in an article she wrote for Outlook magazine in 1998. She went to Afghanistan in 1989 after marrying Mr Khan, whom she met in Calcutta.

She wrote that "life was tolerable until the Taliban crackdown in 1993" when the militants ordered her to close a dispensary she was running from her house and "branded me a woman of poor morals".

She wrote that she escaped "sometime in early 1994", but her brothers-in-law tracked her down in the Pakistani capital, Islamabad, where she had arrived to seek assistance from the Indian embassy. They took her back to Afghanistan.

"They promised to send me back to India. But they did not keep their promise. Instead, they kept me under house arrest and branded me an immoral woman. The Taliban threatened to teach me a lesson. I knew I had to escape," she wrote.

It was shortly after that, she wrote, that she tried to escape from her husband's home, three hours from the capital, Kabul.

"One night, I made a tunnel through the mud walls of the house and fled. Close to Kabul, I was arrested. A 15-member group of the Taliban interrogated me. Many of them said that since I had fled my husband's home, I should be executed. However, I was able to convince them that since I was an Indian, I had every right to go back to my country," Ms Banerjee wrote.

"The interrogation continued through the night. The next morning, I was taken to the Indian embassy from where I was given a safe passage. Back in Calcutta, I was re-united with my husband. I don't think he will ever be able to go back to his family."

I stayed back. Unfortunately, Janbaz failed to come back to Afghanistan. Though my in-laws were not too kind, life was tolerable until the Taliban crackdown in 1993,” she said.
