Taliban cut off Safiullah Safi's right forefinger for 2014 voting. That did not stop the businessman from doing it again. This act of defiance in Afghanistan's 2019 elections sparked admiration after a photo was posted on Twitter showing his missing right forefinger and the left stained with indelible ink. I know it was painful but it was only a finger and when it comes to the future of my country I will not sit back, said Safi.
