        On August 11th, Graham Bowley wrote an article about a girl abused and tortured that was recently found in a "dirty, windowless cellar". He starts off by listing all the horrible things Sahar Gul so that the readers get into her story. He then talks about how her story got the attention of many including the President Hamid Karzai and the media all through the world and how they are doing the best they can to prevent that from happening in other places to other people. He continues by sharing the whole story, he talks about her father's death, about how badly her stepmother treated her, about how she was sold to a man who abused her and he talked about how no one payed attention to her wounds and to her behavior. Six months after being beaten up and raped officials found her at a cellar, and after expectations, the people who did that to her, were to be kept in prison for the rest of their lives.

        After all the suffering she has been through, Sahar Gul, is now recovering emotionally and physically from the wounds and still aspires to be a politician one day and make justice to people how have been dealing with the same issues she dealt with. Bowley wrote this article to make people aware of horrible types of crimes and tortures like that. He also did that to spread an awareness to such things.
