(Dawn) – Hidden in the mountainous swathes of the picturesque Swat Valley stands a tall fortress unknown to many. Behind the high walls and heavily guarded rooms of this fortress, young boys are starting a new chapter in their lives; one which does not involve guns and bombs. This is Sabaoon, a deradicalisation centre, for ‘child soldiers’. Some of these children, indoctrinated by the Taliban, were once even prepared to walk into crowded markets and blow themselves up.
