Kusukela uRokhsar Azamee aqala ukushayela emigwaqweni yaseKabul ngonyaka odlule, ubekezelela ukudelelwa, ukuhlekwa, ngisho nokusongelwa ukuphila kwakhe nabanye besilisa ababangela “izingozi” ngamabomu ukuze bamhlukumeze. Kodwa ngeke adikibale.
Le ntatheli eneminyaka engu-23 ubudala ifunde ukushayela ukuze igweme ukuhlukumezeka kwabesilisa emgwaqweni njengoba njalo ekuseni ilinde itekisi enomshayeli owayengayihluphi uma eya emsebenzini.
Kepha ngisho nokuthengwa kwemoto yakhe akumvikeli ekulahlweni yicala emphakathini ophethwe ngamadoda, ne-ultra-conservative e-Afghanistan.
Uthi: “Emadodeni amaningi kuyinto entsha ukubona owesifazane eshayela imoto, azokuhlukumeza. Enye indlela yokwenza lokho iwukwenza ingozi.”
Kwake kwathi lapho elibangise ekhaya ngemoto yakhe yohlobo lweToyota Corolla emhlophe yango-1997, walandelwa iqulu lamadoda amane noma amahlanu ayehamba ngeSUV.
Ukukhathazeka kwakhe kwakukhula, waqhubeka nokushayela baze bamvimba emgwaqeni ongenamuntu edolobheni laseKabul, bamphoqa ukuthi adonse.
Kodwa njengoba amadoda eqala ukuphuma emotweni yawo, wabona ithuba lakhe lokubaleka - ehlehla ngokushesha wabe eseshaya isigijimi.
Uthi: “Kwakuyisenzakalo esibi kakhulu kimi.
Bekungenjalo njalo. Kuze kube yiminyaka yawo-1990 abesifazane base-Afghan babevame ukutholakala beshayela - ngisho nokushayela amabhasi, emadolobheni amakhulu okungenani.
Kodwa ngo-1992, lapho umbuso wamakhomanisi eKabul uwa futhi kugqashuka impi yombango, abashayeli besifazane badikibala kancane.
Futhi njengoba iqembu le-Taliban eleqisayo lingena emandleni ngo-1996, abesifazane babengavunyelwe ukushayela kuphela, kodwa ngisho nokushiya amakhaya abo bengenazo i-burqa noma inkampani yomphathi wesilisa.
Uguquko aluzange luphinde lufike kwaze kwaba yilapho ukuhlasela kwe-US kuketula iTaliban emandleni ngasekupheleni kuka-2001 futhi uhulumeni osekelwa iWashington wathatha izintambo.
Ukulingana ngobulili kwafakwa kumthethosisekelo wase-Afghan, futhi izigidi zabesifazane zaphuma emthunzini zaya ezikoleni nasemanyuvesi futhi zisebenza emahhovisi futhi.
Nokho, eminyakeni eyishumi nane kuqhubeke, umqondo womshayeli wesifazane usabonakala njengempikiswano, evusa inkanuko futhi ngisho nokuziphatha okubi.
I-Islam ayibavimbeli abesifazane ukuthi bashayele, kodwa imithetho nezinkambiso zamasiko ziyahlukahluka emhlabeni wonke wamaSulumane, kusukela eSaudi Arabia - lapho abesifazane bevinjelwe ukushayela ngokuphelele - ukuya e-Iran nasePakistan, lapho abashayeli besifazane bevame kakhulu khona.
E-Afghanistan, abashayeli besifazane bathathwa njengento yaseNtshonalanga kanye nokuchithwa kwezimiso zamaSulumane, uBabrak, indoda yase-Afghan eneminyaka engamashumi amahlanu ubudala, etshela i-AFP.
Uthi: “Abesifazane, ikakhulukazi amantombazane amancane, ukushayela kungandisa ukuziphatha okubi futhi kuholele ngisho nasekuhwebeni emiphakathini yamaSulumane.” Laba besifazane abashayelayo bakhuthaza odadewethu abangamaSulumane abazinikele ekuziphatheni okubi. Sekungabekezeleleki.”
