The British newspaper "Daily Mail" revealed a horrific accident that occurred inside an addiction treatment hospital in the Afghan capital, Kabul.
The newspaper said in a report that the inmates of one of the rehabilitation centers of the "Taliban" movement are living in very harsh conditions due to starvation, where 3 people share one bed with little and sometimes no food, which forces them to eat grass, cats and even human meat.
One of the Taliban's pledges when they regained control of Afghanistan last year, was to eliminate the drug problem in the country once and for all.
And after 6 months of seizing power, the "Taliban" arrested thousands of homeless drug addicts and imprisoned them in hospitals, for a period of 3 months, to detoxify.
Speaking to Danish journalists last month, one recovering addict said: "They killed a man and started a fire. They took his intestines and ate it."
Another guest said it was common for patients to go days without food and routinely die of starvation.
He told Radio "Damarks", the country's public radio, that someone had cut off the head of a cat in the garden and ate it.
According to "Russia Today", inmates said that some of the addicts were executed even before they reached the hospital, and one of them claimed that 9 of his friends were executed in prison before the rest were locked up in the clinic.
They stressed that food has been scarce for months, and that doctors used to provide inmates with half a loaf of bread every day, but now they do not get it.
Food rations are now extremely scarce, and only some guests are allowed to eat each day, queuing up in an empty room before handing over a small bowl of rice.
And those who cannot eat, go to the garden to gnaw the grass.
But it doesn't do much to keep them alive, but at least it stave off hunger pangs that are sometimes so bad that they can't sleep.
The doctors who run the facility are sympathetic to the inmates, but they can do little.
They haven't been paid for months and have no idea when their next wages will be paid, which means helping patients out of their own savings could turn into a slow death sentence for their families.
A Taliban spokesman denied the allegations. "These people are sick and don't know what to say," said Hasibullah Ahmadi, head of the Taliban's anti-narcotics office.
Afghanistan has long been the world's largest supplier of illicit opium and heroin, producing more than 80 percent of the supply, and 2017 was the peak year, with the country producing $1.4 billion, according to the United Nations.
