Archives Provide Evidence of Afghan War Crimes
Friday, 24 February, 2012
Thirty years of war have left Afghanistan with more than a million dead and many more disabled. Three million people have fled their homes in the decades of fighting.
Since the fall of the Taleban in 2001, a growing number of Afghans have been calling for war criminals to be brought to justice. Human rights groups have gathered a growing amount of evidence which could be used if trials are ever held.
Reporter Humayun Hadid visits a museum in Herat to see what kind of evidence has been collected so far.
