About the Show

When human rights activist Karima Baloch is found drowned off the shores of Toronto, an investigation into her mysterious death leads all the way back to Pakistan, the country she had recently fled. In this six-part series titled The Kill List, host Mary Lynk explores the rampant abductions and killings of dissidents in Pakistan, the dangers that follow those who flee to the West, and a terrifying intelligence agency with tentacles around the globe. At its heart, this is a story of brave, inspirational people on a tireless quest for justice, who will speak truth to power at all costs. People whose hope fuels them.

In this story of discovery one that people have not heard the series seeks to answer: how did Karima die? And would Pakistan really carry out an assassination far beyond its borders?

This is a story that a powerful state doesnt want you to know.
