Hi Amer,

It's possible the fuse for the rear wiper has blown (I don't think it shares a fuse with the rear washer).

If the fuse is ok, I'd check for any breaks in the wires where they pass from the car body to the hatch. See http://www.stuartdalby.co.uk/vwgolfmk5/tailgate_snapped_wires/ Check if your rear heated window, rear fog and reversing lights all work.

Failing that, I guess you need to check if any power is getting to the wiper motor. If it is, it's probably a faulty motor.

Hope that helps. Let me know how you get on,

Stuart
