The report says that a 6-year old girl was raped by some men. Her same is Samar Gul and she is a resident of a village in Takhar province.

According to the report, she was not alone; two other small girls and a woman were also raped.

Some weeks back, a 17-year old girl named Shamenzar was raped. While crying, she shouted that the government officials, legal organizations and police supported the criminals.

A month and a half back, eight armed men in police cloths raped a 12-year old girl in the Qalbars village.
