Arefa and her sister escaped Afghanistan from Kabul airport before American forces withdrew from the country. Although she and her sister were 鈥減hysically鈥� safe in the UK, mentally she was 鈥渘ot in a good state鈥� knowing other family members and friends remained in Kabul.

She speaks to 5 Live鈥檚 Naga Munchetty about leaving her old life behind, her hopes for studying International Human Rights Law, and why he is still haunted by a desperate call she received from a mother whose 14-year-old daughter had been taken as a wife by Taliban fighters.

This interview was originally broadcast on Naga Munchetty鈥檚 5 Live show and is part of the 'Voices of Afghanistan' mini-series.
