2) The slaughterhouse of the Karta-e-Mamorin
According to the findings of this study, another slaughterhouse
in Kabul is located in the Karta-e-Mamorin of the fifth district of
Kabul, which is originally a private slaughterhouse and has a con-
tract with the Ministry of Interior and provides the necessary meat
daily. Despite repeated calls, official prevented from meeting and
being, and he declined to provide further information. Because this
slaughterhouse is in a substandard situation and the slaughter con-
ditions in it are also non-standard, and the residents of that area
complained about it because he is a powerful person and even the
government is not able to block it or move it to another place. Kar-
ta-e-Mamorin’s slaughterhouse is not a suitable place for slaughter-
house at all. This slaughterhouse operates for the Ministry of Inte-
rior and slaughters (20–50) buffaloes and (200–300) sheep per day
on the day of slaughter. There is also a building nearby to keep 500–
1000 sheep and other animals. The slaughterhouse officials empha-
size that they transfer all the waste and blood to Paghman district
after the slaughter. Most importantly, in some cases, the buffaloes
escaped from the butcher’s knife, causing harassment and even
injury to locals. (

Other private slaughterhouses are located in the Kabul, Com-
pany area, slaughtering various animals for money for butchers,
hoteliers, restaurants, and others, averaging 20 buffaloes, 10
cows, and 20 sheep a day are slaughtered, and taken from the
slaughter and expulsion of internal organs of a cow and buffalo
in the amount of 200–300 Afghanis and from the slaughter of a
sheep and expulsion of internal organs in the amount of 50–70 Af-
ghanis. The whole process of slaughtering, including all stages such
as pre-slaughter, slaughter, post-slaughter, and general hygiene of
slaughter and slaughterhouse, is non-standard and contrary to all
slaughterhouse principles. authority and the government, espe-
cially the municipality, the Department of Animal Health of the
Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock and the Ministry
of Public Health have no control, inspection and control over these
slaughterhouses. In the slaughterhouse located in the Kampany
area of Kabul city, animals are transported to the slaughterhouse
with beatings and suffering, and without any special measures.
Before the animal dies and all blood is expelled from, the animal’s
head and legs are amputated and the act of emptying the thoracic
and abdominal cavities begins.
In this slaughterhouse, the slaughter begins without restraining
or closing the animal, even when some animals are re-trained with
their necks cut in half (Figure 7). In many cases, especially buffaloes,
they escape from under the knife and cause harassment or injury
to the local people, which is completely against all the principles of
killing, and this is contrary to the statements of Ahmad and Ahmadi
(2016) regarding the laws related to transportation and the animals
are transported to the slaughterhouse for slaughter.
In this slaughterhouse, hygiene measures are not considered and
the slaughterhouses perform this operation without special clothing
for slaughter figure (8).
The slaughterhouse is located near the public road and among
residential houses. The slaughterhouse has a public gate that is about
5–6 meters long and more than 4 meters high and is open all day
and no restrictions have been imposed on movement. The location
of the slaughter of various animals in the slaughterhouse is also un-
known. The walls of slaughterhouses are made of materials such as
baked clay and cement, as well as mud and raw clay. The height of
