Is Jesus fishing?

Abdul Kabir – not his real name – is 12 years old. He left his village in Uruzgan and went in Kandahar to work in a relative’s shop. But when he got there, the man did not want to employ him and shut the door in his face. Abdul went to the labour market and two men promised him a work as a bricklayer for one dollar a day. Instead of bringing him to the yard, they brought him in an abandoned building and abused him. Recovered from the trauma, Abdul decided to come back to his village. A taxi driver offered him a lift and, once in the car, he abused him too. He reached his house at last and tried to earn his living from the opium harvest in the field of a friend of his family. But there, among the poppies, another worker tried to abuse him. The boy reacted and wounded the man with the sickle used for harvesting the opium. The twelve-years-old boy has been turned in to the police and locked up in a detention centre. His abuser is free. - peacereporter.net
