Barbarism and perversion at its finest. The Taliban are indeed a very a sick crew.
Official: Taliban execute boy, 7, as spy
Suspected Taliban militants publicly hanged a 7-year-old boy for spying in the militant stronghold of Helmand province, an Afghan official told the Associated Press.
The child was placed on trial by the Islamic extremist group and later found guilty of working for Afghan President Hamid Karzai's government, the local official said.
Karzai on Thursday condemned the alleged act, calling it a "crime against humanity".
New British Prime Minister David Cameron -- making his first visit to Afghanistan since being elected last month -- joined Karzai in condemning recent attacks, including the hanging.
"If this is true, it is an absolutely horrific crime," Cameron said during a news conference in Kabul. "If true, I think it says more about the Taliban than any book, than any article, than any speech could ever say."
