A Pakistani court has charged six members of a paramilitary force and a civilian with murder for the killing of an unarmed man in the city of Karachi.
The 8 June killing of Sarfaraz Shah was filmed by a cameraman and broadcast on Pakistani television, causing anger and revulsion across the country.
He could be seen pleading for his life before being shot twice by the Rangers.
It is rare for the security forces to be in the dock over civilian deaths. The seven men deny all the charges.
The courts have already ordered the removal of the officer in charge of the paramilitary force. More...
