The lawyer of British "jihadi bride" Shamima Begum has drawn fire for a tweet apparently celebrating the Taliban's capture of Kabul.
Tasnime Akunjee, also known as Mohammed Akunjee, tweeted an image of members of the Taliban, a terrorist organisation banned in Russia, sitting in the presidential palace in the Afghan capital on Sunday, adding the comment "The boys are back in town" — the title of a well-known song by Irish rockers Thin Lizzy.
Akunjee later deleted the original tweet, but not his cheeky reply to it with a link to the song on YouTube.
Some Twitter users reacted angrily to Akunjee's tweet.
Others made puns on the song's lyrics, or pointed out that the Taliban banned secular music, along with television, when they ruled Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001.
Akunjee later hit back at his critics, claiming they had failed to detect the "irony" in his tweet, and that he was being targeted by "racists".
