Protesters Block Pakistani-Afghan Traffic

Dozens of Pakistani demonstrators blocked a highway to Afghanistan on February 23 in a sit-in protest against the killing of a young man by security forces. The blockade has been held intermittently near the town of Landi Kotal, in northwestern Pakistan, since February 22. Adnan Shinwari, 22, was killed in a counterterrorism crackdown near the city of Peshawar on February 21.
