Life under Taliban rule, helpless woman sold child for daughter's treatment
The return of Taliban rule in Afghanistan has made life difficult for ordinary Afghans. How bad the condition of the common people under the Taliban rule can be gauged from the fact that a woman had to sell a piece of her jigsaw for the treatment of her daughter. A woman who came to Kabul, displaced from Baghlan province of Afghanistan, sold her innocent child because of poverty.
He sold his one-and-a-half-year-old child for 30,000 (Afghani currency) to treat his 13-year-old ailing daughter, Tolonews reported. Laluma, who lives in a tent in Kabul, said she had to sell her baby as she had no other option.
The victim woman says that her husband has been missing since last year. Meanwhile, many families in Afghanistan who are being displaced and now living in Kabul are facing many challenges as winter approaches. Many families living in tents say that their children are getting sick during the cold weather.
The displaced families said they had not received any help from the Taliban-led refugee ministry. Ayesha, a displaced woman from Takhar, said that people from the refugee ministry had come here and conducted a survey, but they have not provided any assistance so far, Tolonnews reported. If this situation continues, we will starve to death. After the fall of the Ashraf Ghani government and the Taliban's capture of Kabul, a large number of displaced families are living in tents in Kabul.
