A disaster that exploded everyone's anger; The death of the Afghan girl and the abuse of biased media

Seyed Hamed Amini/ The fatal incident of the death of an Afghan teenage girl in Shahrari hurt hearts and left a bitter memory in the minds of the community. This incident not only left a deep sadness among his grieving family, but also became an opportunity for some subversive media streams to use this human incident as a tool for division and destruction. While a family is mourning the death of their child, some people have ruthlessly taken advantage of this pain to create a divide between people. Is it moral to exploit the grief of a family for political and destructive purposes? Is fairness and conscience sacrificed in such cases?

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Kabul: Why spread rumors in such a situation?

Iran and Afghanistan, with a history full of connections and coexistence, have stood by each other at different times. The sudden death of this innocent girl hurt hearts, but instead of sympathizing, some started spreading rumors and political exploitation. Biased media, especially some accounts attributed to subversive and malicious currents, tried to make the society tense by making false claims such as threatening him with dismissal for wearing leotards, regardless of the facts. These media, which often do not burn the hearts of Afghan immigrants, nor seek the truth, only seek to divide and exploit the grief of bereaved families.

The mission of the media: the border between speed and accuracy

In a situation where the society is shocked by this incident, the mission of the media requires them to consider accuracy and honesty in addition to speed. The goal of the media should be to provide clear and correct information, not to spread rumors and create false excitement. Biased and subversive media, using this incident, seeks to increase the audience and cross-sectional influence, while the damage of such actions increases the social gap between the host society and the immigrants. The media, which have deviated from their ethical and professional principles, instill distrust in people and endanger solidarity.

exploitation of biased media; False zeal or empty show?

The media streams that until yesterday criticized Iran for sheltering Afghan immigrants, have now suddenly appeared in the garb of benevolence and defending the rights of Afghans. This double behavior shows a kind of "false zeal" and an empty show. They are trying to take advantage of the grief of an Afghan family with false and baseless claims, while they have not provided any evidence to prove these claims. These hypocritical and opportunistic behaviors do not serve anything other than the specific goals and limited interests of some subversive and destructive currents and cause abuse of public sentiments.

Trust in legal authorities and the path of justice

In any unfortunate incident, it is necessary to give the legal authorities a chance to follow the path of justice. Justice should be done for everyone without bias, but the biased media is trying to distort this path by spreading rumors and negative atmosphere. Baseless claims and baseless rumors that are raised by biased currents, not only do not heal the pain of the society and the bereaved family, but also help to spread discord and create enmity among people.

conclusion

The tragic death of this Afghan girl is a reminder of the importance of responsibility and respect for human dignity. Our society needs empathy and peace, and instead of becoming a tool for incitement and division, this incident should be a push for solidarity and care for each other. The media and biased currents that exploit this great sadness to create a divide, ultimately lead to nothing but social destruction and distrust. We should all remember that such events require sympathy and solidarity, not an excuse for destruction and political exploitation.
