Pakistan execution: Shafqat Hussain was tortured, claim supporters

Pakistan has executed a man convicted of murder eleven years ago, despite objections from human rights groups and the United Nations.

Shafqat Hussain was found guilty of kidnapping and murdering a child in 2004.

His lawyers say he was 14 at the time of his conviction and that his confession was extracted through torture by police, but authorities have denied this.
