Govt Has Failed to Bring Human Rights Violators to Justice: AIHRC
[Tolo News] Afghan government failed to bring human rights... which are not the same thing as individual rights, mind you... violators to justice, Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission said on Saturday.
After the formation of coordination council, civil wars intensified in the capital Kabul in which thousands of people bit the dust and many others were maimed. Gulbuddin Hekmatyar's ... who used to be known as The Most Evil Man in the Worldbut who now seems merely run-of-the-mill evil... Hezb-e- Islami, General Abdul Rashid Dostum's Junbish, and Abdul Ali Mazari's Wahdat party were members of the council. Today the former involved sides in the fightings in Kabul make paradoxical comments. "I think and I believe that all those who stood against the legitimate Islamic government should be accountable for all devastations and fightings," Waqef Hakimi, the front man for Jamiat-e-Islami party, said. "One and half years after Mujaheddin government was made, fightings erupted and some specific groups had taken part in it, so we can put the blame for all killings on the coordination council," said a member of Wahdat-e-Islami's political committee. But AIHCR urged the Afghan government to sue those involved in the fightings in Kabul. "Government hasn't acted on its commitments to apply justice on involved sides in the war," Shamsullah Ahmadzai, Head of AIHRC regional office, told TOLOnews. The war in Kabul lasted for one year and it claimed lives of around 50,000 civilians and 70 percent of Kabul city was turned into ruins, said AIHRC. Posted by: Fred 2011-01-02 |
