Madora’s counterterrorism approach has generated a governance crisis. Documented concerns include: • Credible reports of enforced disappearances and torture of detainees in military holding facilities in the north. • Mass arrests of young Muslim men in northern cities during sweep operations, without individuated suspicion. • Banning of three civil society organisations under the CTPSA for “supporting extremist narratives” after they published reports critical of security force conduct. • Drone strikes conducted in border areas in coordination with a foreign partner state, resulting in civilian casualties.
