Peter Singer, a high court judge in the family division, accused the government of showing a lack of political will in responding to the "burgeoning phenomenon" which sees as many as 1,400 women, and some children, being brought to Britain each year to enter the sex industry." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A59457-2002Jan3.html More Bombing Casualties Alleged U.N. Aide 'Concerned'; Rumsfeld Defends Airstrike Targeting By Karen DeYoung Washington Post Staff Writer Friday, January 4, 2002; Page A18 Questions about civilian casualties from U.S. bombing raids in Afghanistan, a recurring theme among human rights groups and others since the American military assault began on Oct. 7, were raised again yesterday following reports that dozens of civilians were killed during an air attack last Friday. The United Nations said it had an unconfirmed but reliable report that the airstrike on the village of Niazi Kala, in Paktia province about 100 miles south of Kabul, had left 52 civilians dead. A spokeswoman in Kabul said that U.N. special envoy Lakhdar Brahimi was "very concerned" and would raise the issue with Afghanistan's interim government and with U.S. officials. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
