Rejected suitor beats, pours acid on family

By Lee Ha-na

He asked for her hand in marriage, but she refused him. A few weeks later, a group of men stormed into her house in the city of Kunduz in Afghanistan and attacked her family of five.

Mumtaz, 18, is the oldest daughter in her family and the one who rejected a suitor due to his reputation of being a troublemaker. Her family supported her decision and Mumtaz became engaged to a relative.

According to her mother, the six or seven men beat the father and poured acid on the whole family, which consists of Mumtaz’s parents and two sisters.

The BBC reports that the man Mumtaz refused to marry is part of a militia called the Arbakis, which has been accused of many crimes, such as rape.

The head of the Kunduz hospital, Abdul Shokor Rahimi, says the family is being treated for injuries and that Mumtaz and her father are in critical condition.

Kunduz senior police detective, Ghulam Mohammad Farhad, has vowed to find those responsible, calling them immoral.

The furious courter is not the only one who has used acid on victims. Areas in Afghanistan that are ruled by the Taliban have been sites where such acid attacks have occurred, such as when a group of school girls had acid thrown on them by Talibam members who were against women being educated.

An Afghan journalist Abdul Razaq Mamon now has permanent burns on his face after attackers threw acid on him in January, most likely due to his political beliefs.

The international combat mission in Afghanistan is set to end by 2014, yet many are worried about the future for Afghan women.
