Incident description

The Killing of AGSA refers to the collective murder of opponents of the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan in the Pul-e Charkhi Prison in Kabul, between 1978 and 1979. The Afghan Intelligence Office, or AGSA, was led by Asadullah Sarwari. Thousands of individuals were put to death without a single trial, probe, or even allegation. Many Afghan families had no idea where their loved ones had disappeared to. A list of those slain by the AGSA was made public by the Dutch Prosecutor's Office in 2013.
