In a country that could be paradise, Karachi seems to be hell. To the south: the sea. To the north: the spectacular Karakorum mountains. In between the two: desert and a mixture of ancient cultures. But death, the taliban, attacks, gangs, bombs, guerrilla warfare and tribal fights are daily routine. Every day the Pakistanian hell causes endless suffering. Land and the people are wounded. Poverty is beyond words. For the people here, Hanne Glody (87) is a blessing. One brave old lady who comes to Pakistan two times a year. This is remarkable. For years now, she has been trying to interest other humanitarian organisations for the suffering of the people in Pakistan. Yet no one else dares to help, as fear of the Taliban is omnipresent. In illegal Afghan camps, that are hidden in the desert Hanne Glodny builds schools, provides medical attandance for the so called "haris", establishes hospitals and works at the leprosarium in Karachi.
