In the second of Ghaith Abdul-Ahad’s series of three films he visits Baghdad’s killings fields on the edge of Sadr City. The scene of thousands of sectarian murders over the last three years, it is a desolate and evil place: ‘Only the killers and the killed ever come here’ says Abdul-Ahad. Here in the thousands of unmarked graves lie the victims of the Shia militia gangs.

Baghdad’s Killing Fields was made by Ghaith Abdul-Ahad with GuardianFilms for ITV News.
