The Taliban raped and beat a gay man after duping him into meeting them, a report from ITV says.

The outlet said that Hanan, a pseudonym given to protect his identity, had been speaking to a man on social media who promised to help him find a safe way out of Afghanistan.

Many LGBTQ people have been desperately trying to flee the country following the Taliban takeover.

Hanan agreed to meet the man in Kabul after speaking for three weeks online, who unbeknownst to him were actually Taliban men.

When Hanan met the men, they raped and beat him, Afghan LGBTQ rights activist Artemis Akbary told ITV.

2. The Taliban are weird dudes.

I’m glad they didn’t kill this gay man. But it is weird that they punish him by performing a gay sex act on him by raping him. Are the guys that raped him not performing a gay sex act? I don’t get them.

3. I was thinking the same thing.

4. In some cultures it's believed if you're not the one being penetrated you're not gay.

5. Interesting. Still weird though.

6. Hold on

They oppose homosexuality but rape a man?

Their actions are barbaric.
