Last year, I interviewed a teen named Jordan. Innocent looking and surrounded by pink stuffed animals, she told me a horrific story. She'd sought treatment for her mental health issues and says she was "punished and treated like a criminal." @nytopinion nytimes.com/interactive/2022…

Many who've gone through this industry call themselves survivors. They've been sounding the alarm and pushing for reform. Leading the charge is @ParisHilton who told me about the abuse says she endured at one of these facilities when she was a teen.

After the Taliban took control of Afghanistan last August, @aellick asked me: Could #OSINT play a role in monitoring human rights abuses across the country once the international media looked away? This is the result. THREAD: nyti.ms/38ULCX4

Last year, human rights monitors reported **at least* 100 reprisal killings since Taliban's takeover, a figure repeated often since, but never meant as complete measure. Now, a new measure of Taliban atrocities affirms what many insisted on: that number is much higher. THREAD:
The Taliban are on a campaign of revenge killings; an investigation led by @babimarcolini, @SanjarSohail and @AStocktonFilms reveals nearly 500 former officials and Afghan security force members have been killed or disappeared. nyti.ms/3v5PmMA

And thanks to the relatives, witnesses, and survivors who spoke up, and to the Afghan journalists who reported on the ground. Your bravery is the reason this story can be told.

The Taliban have now denied our findings. They also seem to be shrugging responsibility by blaming the murders on imposters.

In what appears to be a response to the #NYT piece regarding violation of #amnesty by #Taliban in #Afghanistan , spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid in a press release has claimed that 7 Taliban members have been convicted by their courts. 1/
