Fazal Mahmood Fazly, the former DG of the Administrative office of the President of Afghanistan, has called for the prosecution of those responsible for the torture of Sayed Mehdi by Iranian police.
In response to a video showing the brutal treatment of a 15-year-old Afghan youth in Damavand-Iran, Fazly described the act as savage and highlighted that millions of Afghans in neighboring countries are facing harsh conditions and inhumane treatment.
He added that the absence of a legitimate government in Afghanistan has left Afghans vulnerable to such abuses. Fazly emphasized that if Afghanistan had a legitimate government, it could defend the rights of its citizens through diplomatic channels and international conventions.
