Karzai calls on Afghan troops to clean up own act
Afghan President Hamid Karzai is calling on his own security forces to clean up their act and end incidents of torture and abuse of the Afghan people.
The remarks are a shift in tone from Karzai's speeches that have solely blamed foreign troops for abuse. Karzai told parliament Wednesday that Afghan forces are violating their own people's rights, making it harder for him to raise the issue when abuses are carried out by foreigners. (AP)
