Afghan President Orders Probe Into Alleged Pedophile Ring

Ed.'s note: Without ever missing a beat the US State Department never misses the opportunity to bash Russia. This time with US Ambassador to Afghanistan John Bass "being deeply disturbed by these Soviet-style tactics" on the detention of two activists in Afghanistan who revealed a pedophile ring operating in Logar Province. Up until the late 70s Radio Free Liberty was receiving covert funds from the CIA. Probably today a similar financial arrangement although now through "legitimate" US government sources. Afghan President Ashraf Ghani's ordering an investigation into the detention of the two activists is pretty much the usual reaction of government officials. It's as if to say that "officially" governments and government leaders oppose pedophilia and they are generally concerned which isn't the case at all as we've seen in America with the Jeffrey Epstein sex slave trade and pedophile networks. Ghani would be better off stating child trafficking in Afghanistan is on the rise and still remains a Tier 2 country for child trafficking then get to work. It now looks as though the two activists have been released within the past 18 hours: After U.S. pressure, Afghanistan frees activists who exposed sex abuse

Afghan President Ashraf Ghani
Afghan President Ashraf Ghani said he had ordered an investigation into an alleged pedophile ring operating in the country's schools, and criticized Afghanistan’s main intelligence agency for detaining two activists who helped expose the scandal.

In a series of tweets on November 26, Ghani said he was "deeply disturbed about the recent reports on sexual abuse" in schools in Logar Province, south of Kabul, and that he instructed the Education Ministry to provide him a "thorough report" on the matter "ASAP."
The move comes after the British newspaper The Guardian earlier this month reported that at least 546 boys from six schools have allegedly been abused by a pedophile ring involving teachers and local officials.

Amid national outrage over the allegations, the National Directorate of Security (NDS) has come under fire for arresting last week two human rights defenders -- Musa Mahmudi and Ehsanullah Hamidi -- who gave interviews about the purported pedophile ring.

The NDS on November 26 described the Guardian report as "baseless" and said Mahmudi's claims in the article were part of a scheme aimed at securing asylum in a foreign country.

But Ghani said he had instructed the intelligence agency to "stop the proceedings" against Mahmudi and Hamidi, adding: "The protection of civil society and human rights defenders is the sole responsibility of the security forces."

The Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission expressed deep concern about the detention of the two activists, calling it a "clear contradiction of national laws and human rights standards."

London-based Amnesty International also called for their immediate release, saying the authorities should hold the suspected perpetrators of "these horrific crimes" accountable, rather than punishing Mahmudi and Hamidi for speaking out against them.

John Bass, the U.S. ambassador to Afghanistan, said he was "deeply disturbed by these Soviet-style tactics" of the NDS.

The ancient practice of "bacha bazi" -- literally, dancing boys -- is common in Afghanistan among wealthy and powerful men who exploit underage boys as sexual partners.

Ed.'s note: US Ambassador to Afghanistan John Bass comments on the detention of the two Afghan activists who revealed the pedophile ring ("bacha bazi") as being "deeply disturbed by these Soviet-Style tactics" is damn amusing. Especially considering all the activists and investigative journalists in America who have come under extreme attack and censorship uncovering far worse pedophile rings operating in the US to extort corporate, government and military leaders for concessions and for blackmail purposes. Why not call it "American-style tactics"instead to silence activists? Sorry, John Bass, "Soviet-style" persecution and show trials are firmly established in America.
