[quote=Anonymous]Other news agencies picking up this story http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2015/9/21/afghan-police-sex-abuse-charges-raise-legal-question-for-us-aid.html Though the abuse of young boys by warlords or commanders has long been “known as something that happens in Afghanistan, [b]what's shocking is the proximity it was taking place to U.S. soldiers and the allegations that those aberrant acts can apparently be ignored,[/b][u]” said Jonathan Horowitz, a legal officer for the Open Society Justice Initiative. Leahy Law advocates call these “cultural” exceptions into question, however. “C[b]hild rape by a partnered security force member should not escape the gaze of the Leahy Law,” said Horowitz, of Open Society. “It’s not regarded as culturally relevant when it comes to definitions of war crimes, and the same should apply here.”[/b][/u] http://www.cnn.com/2015/09/22/asia/afghanistan-boy-abuse-us-military/ [/quote]
