President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani has promised to take rape cases extremely serious as the incidents involving rape cases, specifically the rape of young children have been rampant during the recent months.
Speaking during a gathering attended by representatives and advocates of women’s rights, President Ghani said there will be zero tolerance policy against the rape incidents.
He reiterated that four women would be nominated in the cabinet of the Government of National Unity.
President Ghani visited Herat province in an unannounced visit to meet with the local officials. He is expected to take serious decisions regarding the provincial government by this evening.
The commitment by President Ghani to take rape cases extremely serious, comes as sexual abuse and rape of children have been rampant in Afghanistan, specifically during the recent months.
Acording to a government survey, around 65 rape case were recorded in six provinces where child rape happens more frequently.
The survey covered incidents recorded between March and September this year where incidents on children as young as 1-year-old to 13-year-old were reported raped.
