About this video: “Minorities under siege in Afghanistan – 25 May 09” is a news report published by the Al Jazeera English channel on May 25, 2009. It examines Afghanistan’s Hindu and Sikh communities, which were once among the most prosperous in the country but dwindled after attacks on religious temples during the Afghan civil war in the 1990s caused many Sikhs and Hindus to flee. The remaining minority members say they have been forgotten by their government and need help to rebuild what they have lost, and Al Jazeera’s Nick Clark reports from Kabul.
