The Taliban has arrested four young men for wearing outfits inspired by Peaky Blinders, local media reports.
The men were detained in Hera, Afghanistan by Taliban morality enforcers and accused of 'promoting foreign culture'.
Photos of the group - wearing long coats, flat caps and styled clothes similar to characters from the Shelby family - had circulated widely on Afghan social media in recent days, where some users dubbed them the 'Jebrael Shelbys.'
In an interview published earlier on the YouTube channel 'Herat Mic,' the young men said they wore the outfits out of admiration for the show's fashion and received mostly positive reactions from residents.
