🚨🇦🇫BACHA BAZI: AFGHAN PRACTICE THAT ALLOWS MEN TO RAPE YOUNG BOYS. By Mario Nawfal. Bacha Bazi, meaning "boy play," is a practice in Afghanistan where young boys are sexually exploited by powerful men. Victims, often abducted or coerced, are forced to dress as women, dance for their abusers, and endure sexual abuse. The practice is considered a status symbol among local elites. Though illegal, Bacha Bazi continues due to cultural norms, corruption, and lack of enforcement, leaving countless boys vulnerable and without justice. Even US forces were told to turn a blind eye to this practice when it was conducted by Afghan allies during the war. Sickening. Source: The Diplomat, PACT.
