A long BBC News report that opens with:Link:https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-48139648Tens of thousands of people have been killed in Pakistan's long battle with militants as part of the post-9/11 "war on terror". Evidence of murder and torture by soldiers and insurgents is emerging only now. The BBC has gained rare access to some of the victims.
Hardly a Pakistani state "hearts & minds" approach to countering militancy. So in this case the promises made by Imran Khan were just that promises:There was no response to BBC requests for comment from the government of Prime Minister Imran Khan, even though Mr Khan raised the issue of rights abuses in the tribal areas when he was an opposition politician.
