Bacha Bazi, Sexual Abuse and US-Dog-Rape in Afghanistan

Afghan army once besieged the house of war criminal and Vice President Abdul Rashid Dostum to arrest his bodyguards involved in the sexual abuse of former governor of Jowzjan province Ahmad Eshchi. Mr Eshchi was beaten, abused for hours and pictured on mobile phone by the bodyguards of Afghan Vice President. The Vice President has also been accused of having sex with the governor in his guest-room in the presence of his bodyguards. “You will not believe what I will say. He (Dostum) said first he wants to have sex with him (Eshchi). He (Dostum) ordered his guys to lift me up," Eshchi said in an interview with Tolo News. He said: “I took Gen Dostum hand and greeted him. From that point, he started abusing me verbally. He told me that he knows what I have done. He told me he knows what my son has done. -Who will look for you if I kill you here? I will throw you under the horses and do Buzkashi game on you. He called on his bodyguards and told them to grab me and beat me. He (Dostum) laid me on the ground and put his foot on my neck," Eshchi said. The shame culture of Bacha Bazi (child sexual abuse) in Afghanistan continues to make the lives of young boys and children vulnerable.
