Pakistani Taliban's reign of terror returns to Swat Valley

FOCUS © FRANCE 24

Following the Taliban's return to power in Afghanistan, the Pakistani Taliban (Tehrik-i-Taliban, or TTP) have retaken their positions in areas along the border. With the return of Taliban fighters, the picturesque Swat Valley has once again descended into violence and fear. Targeted killings and kidnappings are now a daily occurrence, as well as terror attacks by the TTP. In the city of Mingora, the population is doing its best to resist the armed group. Those who do not support it are seen as traitors. Our correspondent reports.
