Child Sex, Bacha Bazi and Prostitution in Afghanistan: Male Prostitution, Forced Marriages, Play Boy, Women, Arms and Drug Trafficking.

Every month, hundreds of Afghan children, women and unemployed young men are kidnapped, imprisoned or trafficked to international market and local prostitution industry. In Pakistan and Afghanistan, war criminals have left a shameful record of child sex, children trafficking, kidnapping and play boy business. Male prostitution has not been considered a harmful business in Afghanistan since decades. Though, keeping a play boy or Bacha Bereesh (a boy without beard) is not illegal but thousands wealthy people, business men and criminal gangs are involved with play boys across the country since long. WikiLeaks recently released a cable from Afghanistan revealing US government contractor DynCorp’s involvement in the boy play business. DynCorp is a company of private militia training Afghan police force. According to recent reports, more than 95 percent budget of the militia comes from the US and part of that is being spent on child abuse parties and sex trafficking in northern Afghanistan. To meet the sexual needs of Afghan police officers, in December 2010, as WikiLeaks cable reported, DynCorp purchased many young boys for Afghan policemen.
