'US Government told to ignore reports of rights abuses by Pak
army'
Press Trust of India / Washington December 03, 2010, 13:35 IST
The US government was advised to keep reports of human rights
violations by the Pakistani army under wraps by its then envoy
to the country Anne Patterson, who also suggested that the focus
should be on assistance to Islamabad which was a close ally on
the war against terrorism.
This was disclosed by whistle-blower website WikiLeaks, which
released a secret US cable from the American embassy in
Islamabad that was signed off by Patterson.
"A growing body of evidence is lending credence to allegations
of human rights abuses by Pakistan security forces during
domestic operations against terrorists in Malakand Division and
the Federally Administered Tribal Areas," said the cable, much
before reports of such abuses appeared on YouTube and other
websites.
The cable dated September 7, 2009 and labelled as Secret/Nonforn
(Non-foreign) was part of over 2,50,000 secret US documents
which WikiLeaks claims to have in its possession.
The US, which has charged the WikiLeaks with indulging in a
criminal act by stealing and releasing these cables, has neither
confirmed nor denied the authenticity of these documents.
Taking serious note of human rights violations by the Pakistani
Army, Patterson, however, advised Washington to avoid comment on
these incidents to the extent possible and that efforts should
remain focused on dialogue and the assistance strategy to
Pakistan.
"While it is oftentimes difficult to attribute with accuracy any
responsibility for such abuses, reporting from a variety of
sources suggests that Frontier Corps and regular Pakistan Army
units involved in direct combat with terrorists....," the US
cable said.
"The crux of the problem appears to centre on the treatment of
terrorists detained in battlefield operations and focused on the
extra-judicial killing of some detainees. The detainees involved
were in the custody of Frontier Corps or Pakistan Army units,"
it said.
The allegations of extra-judicial killings generally do not
extend to what are locally referred to as 'the disappeared' --
"high-value terrorist suspects and domestic insurgents who are
being held incommunicado by Pakistani intelligence agencies
including the Inter-Services Intelligence Division (ISI) and
Military Intelligence (MI) in their facilities," the cable said.
