Several they were from the violent Pech and Korengal valleys and had lost
their fathers in clashes between American troops and insurgents, or in Nato
airstrikes.
They told reporters that with their fathers gone, their families could not
afford to look after them so they were being sent to private madrassahs
where they would receive free food and clothes.
Afghan intelligence officials have blamed insurgents including the Taliban for
launching a wave of child suicide bombers against targets in the country in
the past few years.
Young boys are chosen because they are gullible and less likely to be frisked
at checkpoints which would stop a grown man.
“Children are not searched. A policeman will never search a child,” explained
one senior Afghan intelligence official.
Afghanistan blames hundreds of privately-funded madrassahs in Pakistan’s
border regions for brainwashing boys with extremist propaganda against their
government and its Western allies and then persuading them to wage jihad or
become suicide bombers.
Poor pasthun families often send their sons to madrassahs to receive a free
education and to escape the conflict in the Afghanistan. Wealthy donors
allow the schools to offer free tuition, food and sometimes a stipend to
study.
Seddiq Seddiqi, spokesman for the interior ministry, said: “It was obvious
what was happening with these boys. They were being taken across the border,
without any paperwork or documentation, to Pakistan where there are lots of
these madrassahs.
“They train these children and then they send them back to carry out attacks.”
The four men accompanying the children, Fazl Maula, Syed Habib, Samiullah and
Amir Gul, were all arrested, while the boys were sent back to their
families, he said.
The senior intelligence official estimated there were almost 2,000
privately-run madrassahs in the border regions.
“Now most of these madrassahs are training camps,” he said.
“Pakistan’s government is trying to help us, but they don’t have access to
many of these areas.”
