Eunuchs are an oppressed section of our society, which is looked down upon and despised by all. Is from At first, these are the people who are reluctant to adopt them and then there comes a time when they start seeking asylum after being separated from their parents, family and society and on such occasions they are given shelter by people like them. Asylum seekers join these groups, where their arrival is regularly celebrated and accepted wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, even today, more than 95% of eunuchs are living on dance songs, due to which they are looked upon with more contempt. Even those who do not tolerate their existence sometimes go after their lives. Every day such incidents happen in which these weak, helpless people lose their lives at the hands of their own and others. A similar incident took place in Peshawar in the last few days, when eunuchs were invited to dance and sing at a Minhadi ceremony in Pelosi area of Tehkal area between 9th and 10th September. After the three-hour program, the eunuchs were riding in a car when they were fired upon, as a result of which an eunuch named Gul Panda was killed and Chahat was injured. A stampede broke out after the firing. People lay on the ground to save their lives, while the severely injured Gul Panda and Chahat were lying on the ground helpless, addicted to blood. When the panic subsided, the people on the spot and the eunuchs rushed their injured comrades to the Khyber Teaching Hospital for medical treatment, where Gul Panda succumbed to his injuries. Dozens of eunuchs were informed of the incident. Arrived at the hospital. Seeing his feelings over the murder of his partner, even the people present there could not control their emotions and became overwhelmed. The injured eunuch, Chahat, told police, “I went with Gul Panda, Gadya, Adnan and Meri on August 9 to attend the funeral of Emad son of Ibrahim, a resident of Chand Mari. Aya. ”Gul Panda’s body was handed over to his heirs after postmortem, which was later buried in his native village, Pishta Khara.
The number of eunuchs in Peshawar is much higher than in other cities of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, so there are daily reports of them being targeted. Sometimes they are abducted, sometimes they are tortured and sexually abused. Five days before the Tehkal incident, firing was also carried out on eunuchs on Ring Road within the limits of Faqirabad police station, as a result of which an eunuch was injured. Injured eunuch Taus son of Gulzar said, “He was returning from a wedding party in Qazi Kalay with his fellow eunuchs when he was stopped by armed men on two motorcycles on the ring road and armed. He snatched Rs 50,000. When they resisted, the gunmen opened fire on them. Earlier, an eunuch was abducted and gang-raped in Machni Gate police station. The victim’s eunuch told police that the suspects also made a video of her during the rape, threatening to go viral on social media if a report was lodged, and that’s what happened. An FIR was registered against the accused and they were arrested. However, the affected eunuch submitted his consent in the court, on which the accused were released on bail.
In most cases, the abuse of eunuchs begins at home, with relatives and in the neighborhood. Hate, contempt is faced. Eunuchs complain that whenever there is any abuse against them and they raise their voice against it, they are found guilty or accused without any investigation. As a child, when some of their habits are like those of a girl, injustice begins with them at home. Siblings and parents start calling her by the name “Hejra” instead of her real name. Seem. Parents, siblings and relatives pay less attention to them than other children and openly express hatred towards them. Due to this social contempt, eunuchs gradually become a burden to their parents, siblings, until they are forced to run away from home. They are in search of a place where they can be recognized, at least as human beings. Usually, they seek refuge in the big cities, from where they reach the upper rooms of eunuchs. The parents also breathe a sigh of relief that they too are fed up with the taunts of the people. Yes, but they are well received here, so they feel that this is the place where they are safe. Where their existence is acknowledged and people around them do not hate them.
After reaching the upper rooms, since they have no option but to sing and dance, they have to learn to dance to raise their stomachs. Within a few days, he takes the form of a regular eunuch and starts attending wedding ceremonies. Eunuchs sometimes become friends with rich and influential people who attend these events. These rich people spend thousands, millions of rupees on them. These friendships grow over time and sometimes those who love them leave their home and business for them. However, as long as they have money, eunuchs maintain friendship and as soon as their pockets are empty they They start running away from him, which leads to fights with his former friends. These people harass them in various ways to maintain friendship and if it still does not work out, then the matter goes to events like Tehkal and Faqirabad.
An eunuch named Asad alias Saeedah was shot dead in Swabi 20 hours after Gul Panda was killed in Peshawar when he went to visit his mother in Swabi from Rawalpindi. Asad alias Saeedah, 18, was found to have moved to Rawalpindi two years ago due to taunts from his siblings, parents and relatives and was making a living by attending wedding ceremonies. He often went to see his sisters and mother in hiding. This time too, the father had gone to Swat, while the mother had gone to visit relatives in nearby villages. The brothers hated coming to his house and his 13-year-old half-brother, Hammad, shot and killed him. Mir Sultan, Asad’s brother, told police in a statement that “whenever Asad came to the village, people would taunt him saying, ‘Your brother is an eunuch’, so whenever he came home, he In this regard, DPO Swabi, Imran Shahid says that a committee has been formed under the supervision of SP Investigation, Banaras Khan to arrest the fugitive accused Hammad. Timur Kamal, coordinator of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Civil Society Network, says more than 70 eunuchs have been shot dead in the province in the last five years. Hundreds of eunuchs were also abducted, raped and tortured. However, despite all this, no legislation has been enacted to protect them. Whenever there is any abuse with eunuchs and they go to the police station to lodge a report, the police find them guilty before they even hear it. Even if a case is registered against the accused due to reports of incidents in the media, the accused will be released on bail soon due to poor investigation and weak FIR. ”He demanded from the government that“ Khawaja The police should be the plaintiffs in cases of abuse of inns, because eunuchs are the least powerful people in the society. When they file an FIR against someone, they start receiving various threats. Initially, they are threatened to stop the FIR and if the FIR is registered, the accused threaten to force them to consent and the eunuch agrees with the accused considering himself weak and insecure. Are forced to letter. The accused are also aware of the low power of eunuchs, so after their release from prisons, they start harassing them again. A few years ago, those who took eunuchs to their events were required to report to the relevant police station. After the ceremony, when they would take the eunuchs back to their upper rooms, they would still inform the concerned police station, but now this process has come to an end, due to which the incidents of abuse against eunuchs have increased.
