Militants hang 8 year old boy in Afghanistan

Quote:

An 8 year-old boy was hanged by militants in Afghanistan's Helmand province after the boy's father -- a police officer in the southern city of Gereshk -- refused to comply with militants' demands to provide them with a police vehicle, officials said.

Afghan President Hamid Karzai condemned the hanging, saying "this action is not permitted in any culture or any religions," according to a statement Sunday, which provided details of the incident.

Karzai said he has ordered local authorities to root out the militants and arrest them "as soon as possible."

The boy was kidnapped Friday. It was unclear when he was killed. The incident comes amid a recent wave of attacks on local officials who are considered anti-Taliban. Less than two weeks ago, Ahmed Wali Karzai, Karzai's half-brother and a provincial council chief in neighboring Kandahar, was killed in his home by a longtime bodyguard.

Awful :bored:

Those Militants should be hanged

:shocked:

Disgusting. What is the matter with this world?!

I remember somebody linking me to a forum site that has all those sick real videos of deaths and mutilations etc

I remember seeing a title about something like this so it may well be the video of it. The titles alone put me off and I can't even watch them as they'd haunt me.

I did watch a south american prison one that was OMFGZZ.

Kids do get kidnapped and killed if ransoms are not met. And their deaths are filmed as proof. Horrific.

ps; this seems recent so no it couldnt have been the video I referred to.

Well, This is a well and truly awful weekend. Poor wee lad.

Wow, Im shocked. The news this weekend has been appauling :(
