Abductions and Killings of Prominent Personalities |
|

Political leaders, workers and their relatives have been eliminated to root out all political activity and create a vacuum which the terrorists could fill; government officials have been killed to paralyse the administration; members of the judiciary have been intimidated to create a breakdown of the legal system intellectuals educationists and community leaders have been abducted and killed to silence possible dissent, foreigners and other tourists have been abducted, threatened and dubbed as agents; persons in the business, finance and industrial sectors have been hit; and even religious human rights activists have not been spared when the "cause" so demanded.
