Thousands of people have gone missing after arrests which began in 2001.

Thousands of people have gone missing after arrests which began in 2001, exact numbers are not known. Marchers feel betrayed by the judiciary, particularly the Supreme Court of Pakistan which they claim is hearing cases of enforced disappearances but doing little to stop them. Families talk of secret detention centres and military torture cells. Some of the missing have failed to be produced in court as ordered by the judiciary and the military are declining to attend hearings.
