Heart-wrenching testimonies from #PashtunNationalCourt11October. It's been 15 years since Mahmood's nephew, Tariq, went missing in Waziristan. “Tariq went to school & never returned. His father has passed away, & his mother is no longer mentally stable.” https://t.co/YVkO58LYjH
د جنوبي وزیرستان، محمود له ۲۰۰۹ کال راهیسې د خپل لادرکه شوي وراره، طارق په لټون ګرځي. طارق سکول ته تللی وو خو بیا رانغی. محمود وايي د لادرکه هلک پلار مړ دی او مور یې په دومره بد حالت کې ده چې نه په ښه پوهېږي او نه په بده! #PashtunNationalCourt11October
