SHOCKING Footage Of Child Being Sold To Man For Food

A father in Afghanistan sold his 9-year-old daughter to buy food and other necessities Monday.

CNN footage showed Parwana Malik being sold to a 55-year old man. Her tormented father Abdul Malik pleaded with the man to treat his daughter well and begged him not to beat her.

“I have no work, no money, no food. I have to sell my daughter. I have no other choice,” Abdul Malik said.

“My father has sold me because we have no bread, rice, or flour. My father has sold me to an old man,” Parwana Malik said.

The man paid Abdul with 200,000 Afghanis, the equivalent of $2,000.

Parwana was then given to the 55-year-old man, covered up and crying. Parwana was forcefully taken away by the man as she tried to stay with her family.

Human rights activists are alleging that there has been an increase in child marriage since the Taliban took over Afghanistan.

Another family in Afghanistan is selling their 9 and 4-year-old daughters for $1,000 each. When asked if they are scared, they answered, “Yes I am.”
