Klantrecensies
Fascinating series, from an astute and persevering journalist
Owen Bennet Jones has long been one of my favourite journalists of the BBC. This report is extraordinary and thrilling as well as chilling to hear about the labyrinths of power and doors locked to unveiling the truth even to Pakistanis who are responsible for uncovering it at key moments. Thank you bbc, Ziad and Bennet-Jones
The assassination
Excellent podcast, thrilling and fascinating to listen to - I can really recommend it to better understand Pakistan and for those who love foreign politica - great example of investigative journalism
The assasination
Very interesting however in my opinion the Irony of this story is that the person who was one of the co- founder of the Taliban has been killed by them.
Excellent investigative journalism.
