As you can see in the video below women in Afghanistan are imprisoned over "modesty crimes" including being raped.
In Afghanistan, ambiguously defined "moral crimes" or "bad character" can mean jail sentences for women.
Under Sharia law a woman is considered half of a man, because the Qur'an says they have only half a brain. In Shari'a courts woman will not receive the right to self-defense without at least 2 witnesses who support her testimony (because she has only half a brain).
According to Islamic tradition, the "honor" of the entire family is measured by women's behavior. Any action that may be perceived as harming the family's honor may cost the woman her life. In other words, a woman is required not only to obey Islam including its strict codes of modesty but also to completely obey her male guardians (husband, father, brother and even uncle).
