independent, UK - Pakistan is to execute 500 militants after lifting a moratorium on the death penalty in the wake of the Peshawar school massacre.
Last week, 133 children were killed by gunmen wearing suicide vests at the Army Public School in Peshawar, sparking international outrage and demands in Pakistan for a tougher response to the Taliban.
The day after the attack, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif lifted the moratorium on executions in terror cases.
