Her film about honour killing in Pakistan, Licence to Kill, for BBC2, brought a change in Pakistani law, winning an RTS award for Best International Journalism.**Postscript noteBetween the time of the final version of this article being received and its publication, a significant development occurred which the author felt was important to add as a postscript:On 5 May 2014, the verdict for the Minova trial was given.Of the 39 soldiers on trial 39, 14 were acquitted, and 19 were sentenced to 10 years prison.Of those, 3 were sentenced to 20 years and 2 were sentenced for life – for rape. The others were charged with pillage and breaking rank.There are many critics of this trial and some say this was sham justice. Yet it is significant that, despite all the difficulties and challenges that could have prevented the trial from taking place at all, it has been completed –and with it, a glimmer of hope that this is the start of the end of impunity.
