It is the alleged involvement of the 19 PAC personnel that is not proved. The fact that 42 dead bodies were recovered the next day is not disputed by any one. By describing this as "an act of alleged mass murder" it seems to imply that the incident never occurred. Hence I am removing the word "alleged" from the first sentence -Sahir 06:04, 25 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In the intro to the article it is referenced that the victims were “shot in cold blood”. I’m new to Wikipedia’s backdoor and don’t want to start anything. I feel like the term “shot in cold blood” expresses a personal feeling rather than facts the way it was. Again, might be wrong, but reading it felt more opinion than historical.
